EGG+FROG invites you to take part in their latest writing competition: Inspirathlon 2024. Like their last competition, they are offering writers something a bit different. This time, they will provide inspirations – these could be videos, pictures or songs – and writers will have one week to write a response.

All entrants can take part in as many rounds as they like. One winner and two runners-up will be selected in each round.

Entries must respond to each round’s prompt – however loosely you like. There are no restrictions on form or genre but there is a maximum limit of 800 words per round. You can even submit previously published work. Entries are open to writers worldwide.

Entries must be received before the closing day of each round.

All winners and runners-up will receive publication and illustration on EGG+FROG.

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.
