Ironclad Creative CIC is seeking stories that respond in any way to the word ‘Dusk.’
The Ironclad Creative Short Story Competition is for both published and unpublished writers. They’re hungry for original writing in English and you can be from anywhere in the world.
Your story can be any genre and length up to 6k words.
23:59 (GMT) on 16th November 2023
£6 per story
- The winning writer will be offered a prize of £100 and publication in the Ironclad Creative CIC anthology
- The second place writer will be offered a prize of £50 and publication in their anthology
- Two further shortlisted writers will be offered prizes of £25 each, and publication in the anthology
- Up to 10 other longlisted writers will be offered publication in the anthology (depending on the length of the winning, second place and shortlisted stories).
If you’re submitting more than one story, you need to pay £6 per entry. Include your name and ONE title in the reference & email subject line. Then ensure you make clear in your email what the title of the multiple entries are AND state the total amount you paid via PayPal.
A small number of free places are available for low income writers. Please email michelle@ironcladcreative.org to request this but don’t send your work – if they have free entries left, they’ll let you know what to do.
