FAQS 

What is the word limit for my entry? 

There is no word limit for all the genres except Short Story. We consider any fiction under 30 pages to fall into the Short Story genre. 

How do I submit my entry? 

If you guys pay attention and read information, you wouldn't ask. But here we're still going to tell you. You can either PM us a link or simply dedicate your entry to us. 

Can I enter this contest with something I've posted before? 

The answer is NO. Okay, so we don't care, even if it's not complete, but we feel that this will be unfair to the other contestants who produce original works, and not just reuse previous ideas. Please do not use one of your posted writing as an entry. It will be rejected, and you will not be entitled a position in the competition. 

What is General Fiction? 

It is basically a broad category, that allows writers to encompass two different genres in their writing, instead of focusing on one main genre. This genre has a separate prize list, compared to the other single genres. Do consider the prizes very much. 

When do we submit our entry? 

You are allowed to submit once you have finished. And it should be before the deadline: 23RD MAY, 11:59PM, GMT +8.
