Fall Black Prize:\u00a0Fragments of Time<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Black Fox<\/em>\u00a0is accepting submissions for its Fall 2024\u00a0Black Fox<\/em>\u00a0Prize. The theme for this round is \u201cFragments of Time.\u201d We are open to loose interpretations of the theme in any genre, as always.<\/p>\n

When we think of time, we often think of a ticking clock. But time is more than merely seconds, minutes, hours, or measurements. Time also has the power to shape our lives. It can be a fleeting moment, a seemingly endless stretch, or a loop. Time can be a guardian of memories, the signal for change, and the constant that connects us to the world around us.<\/p>\n

For this contest, we\u2019re looking for writers to explore the intricacies of time: How does it mold us, ruin us, or set us free? Is time a friend or an enemy? Does time heal or wound? Whether it\u2019s traveling through centuries, racing against the clock, or pausing in a single, spectacular moment, we want work that investigates the mysteries, difficulties, joy, or wonder of time.<\/p>\n

Please submit your strongest fiction, nonfiction, or poetry, and we will choose one winner that we feel interprets the theme best. The prize is $325 and publication in the Winter 2025 issue. All submissions are considered for publication in the Winter 2025 issue. The contest entry fee is $12, and submissions must be submitted\u00a0before midnight (EST) on December 1, 2024<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Please make sure your manuscript is double-spaced with 12-point font. Submissions should be no more than 5,000 words. For poetry, send up to three poems in the same document. For flash fiction, send up to two stories in the same document. Author\u2019s name and page number should appear in the top right-hand corner of every page. We also ask that you specify the category\/genre of your work in the cover letter. Submissions are accepted through our submission manager,\u00a0found here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Please DO NOT submit work that isn\u2019t ready. Take your time and polish your work to the best of your ability before sending it in. No changes can be made to your submission after we receive it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We will select a winner by the end of January 2025, and each entrant will receive a response to their submission.<\/p>\n

***Writers, please note that entry fees are non-refundable,<\/strong>\u00a0and payment to winners is awarded via PayPal. We reserve the right to extend the contest deadline if necessary.***<\/strong><\/p>\n
