The summer months are always quiet ones for the monthly Global Short Story Competition, which means it’s a great time to have a go for the £100 first prize.
Writers from 50 countries have entered the competition since it was launched five and half years ago and it still runs every month with a £100 first prize and a £25 prize for highly commended writers.
The competition, which has had winners, commended and shortlisted stories from all over the world, is judged by Fiona Cooper, an author based in North-East England, where the competition’s organisers, Inscribe Media Limited, are based. Inscribe took over responsibility for the competition in February.
John Dean, competition administrator since its creation and a director of the company, said: “The idea has always been to encourage new writing and we have certainly done that. We’ve seen some terrific, original writing submitted down the years.“
The competition can be entered at www.inscribemedia.co.uk Details of the company’s ebooks can be found on the same site.
* Inscribe Media are also running a free six-word competition with a deadline of July 18. More at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Inscribemedia/183385438479538
