Get your stories straight, Humboldt. It’s time again for the Journal’s
annual 99-word Flash Fiction Contest. Send us your original stories of
99 words or fewer (not including title) and your work might just wind up in a special
issue of the Journal. Send up to three entries in the body
of an email (no attachments or links, please) to [email protected] with
your name and contact information (no pen names) by midnight (for the drama!) on
Thursday, Oct. 31. No poems and, for the love of Bradbury, no
AI-generated copy. For reference, this is what 99 words look like.
