Could you write a hundred-word flash fiction by Thanksgiving? How about for a $20,000 first place prize? Runners-up get a thousand bucks. And it’s legit. I checked because you know what they say about things that seem too good to be true.
This year’s theme is the word, bridging the gap between different cultures and religions. Four languages are accepted: Spanish, English, Arabic, and Hebrew, and the contest is judged by an international jury. Reflecting on how words can bring us together is time well-spent, regardless of the prize money.
The way I see it, the Powerball costs $2 to play. This costs nothing, and you get a piece of flash fiction out of the deal. It’s a win-win.

You had me at flash fiction, and then again at $20,000. Thanks for the heads up Kelly. I’m guessing you’re entering too yeah?
Yes! And good luck! 🙂
You inspired me to try this, Kelly! Thanks for sharing! So, I wrote something… It was 192 words. Now it’s 95! Can I email it to you for your thoughts before I submit?
I’d be honored to read it!
