Cranked Anvil Press Quarterly Flash Fiction Prize

The Cranked Anvil Press Flash Fiction Prize is organised and promoted by Cranked Anvil Press.

Your story/stories can be any theme or genre, but must be a maximum of 500 words (not including the title). You can enter up to THREE stories.

The two placed stories will be published on the Cranked Anvil website.

Future anthologies will also be considered, published by Cranked Anvil Press, in which a selection of short- and long-listed stories from each competition will be published.

We are keen to encourage quality, so suggest writers to check their stories before submitting using Prowritingaid. They have free and paid versions and are the best writing software we know to help improve grammar, readability and check for repetition, ‘sticky’ sentences and suggest alternatives.
