Flash fiction is an increasingly popular genre of writing.  In no more than 1000 words write a short story that entertains the reader.  As a bonus we also offer the opportunity for writers of a flash fiction piece to enter a micro fiction (100 word) story.
The Stringybark Flash Fiction and Micro Fiction Award 2012 is presented to the writer whose story entertains the judges the most.  So that means anything goes — murder mysteries, love stories, adventure tales, erotica, character sketches, outback yarns, comedy, tragedy, farce or whatever or wherever your fancy takes you.
The flash fiction story must have a link (no matter how tenuous) to Australia.  The micro fiction story doesn’t need to have a link to Australia - it’s a bit hard in one hundred words to be parochial!  International entries are most warmly welcomed.
There is a total value of over $770 worth of prizes in cash and books available.
Flash Fiction Award Winners receive:
First Prize - A$350 cash + publication + certificate + e-book + paperback (Value $368)
Second Prize - A$150 cash + publication + certificate + e-book + paperback (Value $168)
Third Prize - A$75 cash + publication + certificate + e-book + paperback (Value $93)
Authors of highly commended stories may also be invited to have their stories published.
Micro Fiction Award Winners receive:
First Prize - A choice of any* four in print Stringybark anthologies (value $59.80)
Second Prize - A choice of any* three in print  Stringybark anthologies (value $44.85)
Third Prize - A choice of any* two in print Stringybark anthologies (value $29.90)
Authors of highly commended stories may also be invited to have their stories published.
Entry Fees:
Flash Fiction Award

Micro Fiction Award

Note that to enter the Micro Fiction Award you must enter the Flash Fiction Award.  For every Flash Fiction Story you enter you may enter a Micro Fiction Story for free.
Stories must be sent via email.   Closing date for entries is 26 August  2012.  Winners will be notified by 11 November 2012.
The winners of last year’s competition are published in the Stringybark Anthology, Between Heaven and Hell.  It is available in the Bookshop in both paperback and as an e-book at discount rates, so you can get an idea of what the judges will be looking for.
Please click on the cover image at the right and you will be taken to the Bookshop for a browse.

NOTE: After you have submitted your entry you will receive a return email stating that your entry and payment has been received and registered.  If you do not  receive a confirmation email within seven days of submission, please contact us to check on your entry’s status.  Occasionally the internet is not as reliable as everyone believes and emails do not arrive.
