Flash Fiction Contest

Twilight Tales will sponsor
the 3rd annual
Flash Fiction Contest
Friday night at 10 PM.

Please bring manuscripts to compete!

• Stories should be no longer than 5 minutes, approx. 750 words.
• One submission per contestant.
• First 15 entries will compete.
• Must be present when your turn is called.
• A buzzer (or some sort of loud noise) will sound when time is up. Readers must stop immediately. Anyone who continues — even to read the next word — will be disqualified.
• Stories not completed in the time limit will not be
disqualified, but will lose points
.

Judges (TBA) will award 1-10 points for three criteria:

Pacing: Does the story have a beginning,
middle and end and proper narrative arc?
Content: Does it accomplish what it sets out to do?
Style: Is it well written and presented?

Ties will be broken by the Emcee.
