Tethered By Letters Spring Contest 2016
Tethered By Letters’ Spring Contest Cycle is coming to a close. The last date to submit your flash fiction, short stories and poems is July 15. Within those categories, any genre is accepted and the winner will receive publication in F(r)iction as well as a cash prize of up to $1,000. There is a $15 entry fee. It is strongly recommended to look at previous versions of F(r)iction before submitting your work to them so you can get an idea of what kind of work they tend to publish. They do allow simultaneous submissions, but you should let them know if your work is accepted elsewhere. It’s also a good idea to look over their formatting and other submissions guidelines before sending in your work. This is a great opportunity for students to get their work published!
