Closing in Two Weeks: the 2022 Hummingbird Flash Fiction Prize!

What Can You Do in 336 Hours?

With just two weeks left to enter, the 2022 Hummingbird Flash Fiction Prize is our final flash-fiction contest of the year. Why not spend a few of those 336 hours crafting a 336-word story? Okay, it doesn’t have to be 336 words! In fact, our final judge, the master of flash himself, Bob Thurber is renowned for his fifty-word stories!

And remember, this contest comes with …

A $300 Top Prize!

… and publication in Pulp Literature Issue 37, Winter 2023.

For a look at 2021’s winners, pick up a copy of Issue 33, Winter 2022. Or read an excerpt of last year’s winner, ‘The Art of Ironing’ by Natalie Harris-Spencer, and runner-up, ‘Out in the Sticks’ by Kevin Sandefur.

Details and How to Enter

Closing June 15th, this contest is for previously unpublished short fiction. And remember: tell those terrific tales in under a thousand words.
