We will be open for entries for our ninth annual fiction contest starting this Saturday, August 28. The winner will receive $500, and the winner, first runner-up and second runner-up will be published in StoryQuarterly 54. We are looking for previously unpublished work up to ~6,250 words. Please send entries through our Submittable page. Our judge will be finalized a little later this fall, so stay tuned for an announcement.

Fiction contest submissions will close on November 7. We are also currently open for general nonfiction submissions through October 17.
