F – F(r)iction’s Short Story Contest
We seek work that actively pushes boundaries, that forces us to question traditions and tastes.

Most events are installed on their deadline date, unless there is a long submission window or unless it's a rolling submission.
P=Poetry, N=Nonfiction, F=Fiction
We seek work that actively pushes boundaries, that forces us to question traditions and tastes.
Three prizes of $1,000 each and publication in Briar Cliff Review are given annually for a poem, a short story, and an essay.
We are open to all styles, but we favor nonfiction with an edge.
Submit to us your best, the box under your bed marked UNSHARABLE, the orphan poem or black sheep fiction. Send us your experimentals; be vulnerable, be calculated.
The premise (target theme) must be an integral part of the plot, not necessarily the central theme but not merely incidental.
