Black Fox<\/em>\u00a0is accepting submissions for our winter writing prize. The theme for this round is \u201cRise or Ruin.\u201d We are open to loose interpretations of the theme in any genre, as always.<\/p>\n

Good reputation or bad? Reputations can mold destinies, define legacies, and\/or echo through history. We invite writers to investigate a reputation’s power, potential, and frailty. Will your hero rise or will your legends fall? Give us themes of redemption, scandal, honor, or betrayal\u2014where truth or lies can shift the direction of a life or shatter a legacy in a single moment. We\u2019re looking for work that will uncover truths behind personas and reveal the complex layers of how we are perceived and remembered.<\/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 print publication in the Summer 2025 issue. All submissions are considered for print publication in the Summer 2025 issue. The contest entry fee is $12, and submissions must be submitted\u00a0before midnight (EST) on March 30, 2025<\/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. Please see our\u00a0Submission Guidelines<\/a>\u00a0before submitting.<\/p>\n

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