ANNUAL SHORT SHORT CHAPBOOK CONTEST

Our 12th Annual Short Short Chapbook Contest submission
period begins November 1 and ends December 1, 2017.
Our 2017 judge will be Rigoberto Gonzalez. The winner
will receive $200 and have his/her chapbook published
in summer 2018, with an introduction by the contest judge.
During the submission period, please submit your 25–40
page double-spaced manuscript of short short stories
(fiction or nonfiction) each under 1000 words to our
Submittable contest site with a $10 reading fee. Multiple
entries from the same author are acceptable as long as
each is accompanied with a separate fee.

Individual pieces in your manuscript may have appeared in
journals, both in print and online, as long as the entire
collection itself is unpublished. Do not put your name
anywhere on the manuscript itself as submissions will be
judged blind. Please be sure your name and contact
information are correct in the submission program when
you submit your manuscript, so we can contact you once
a winner has been chosen.

Please note that current and former students, family
members, and close personal friends of the judge are
not eligible to submit.

Examples of previous winners can be viewed and
purchased through our catalog page.
