Short Story Contest

photo by CapricornOne Vintage

       Good Housekeeping magazine is about to begin accepting submissions for a short story contest. The window of opportunity is July 1-September 1. No longer than 3,500 words, the story must reflect an aspect of women's lives today. (That makes the subject matter limitless, I guess.) It must be original, not previously published nor should it have been a finalist for any other prize or award.

     The grand prize is $3,000. Two runners-up will each receive $750.

     For complete contest rules, go here.

    Can it be about a succubus?

    You're right about the subject matter! Hmm... I need to file this away in my subconscious and see if a story wants to come out. BTW, Sioux, I wanted to include you in an email blast I sent this week, but couldn't find an address for you. My novel, The Somebody Who, is now on Kindle!
