Animals Make The Best People

Sep 13th, 2021 by thegooddoctor in News

Hello everyone!

Starting today, I’ll be accepting submissions for our next 100-word writing contest. The theme is: Animals Are The Best People. I want stories of amazing animals doing amazing anthropomorphic things. Dogs that can talk. Polar Bears that can fly hot-air balloons. Cats that commit murder (well, I suppose that’s normal for cats). Whatever your creative writer brains can dream up.

Flash Fiction Contest Rules:

Submissions are now open for September’s contest. The theme is Animals are the Best People. The rules are simple, but don’t get cocky. Submitters somehow fail to follow instructions all the time:

  • All stories must somehow engage with the theme of animal anthropomorphism. Be creative.
  • The story must be exactly 100 words, not including the title.
  • Only one submission per person. All entries are due by October 11th.
  • Regular posts will continue as well, so please send in non-contest-related stories as per usual.

That’s it. Start writing. I hope I get plenty of stories, so please spread the word.

Also, if you subscribe to my newsletter, I accidentally forgot to update the subject line, so yesterday’s email came in disguised as a Christmas email. Sorry about that!

Also, also, if you’d like to subscribe to my newsletter, here’s the link. As you can tell from the above, emails are few and far between so you won’t feel like you’re getting spammed. I promise!!!

*Note: This contest is meant for fun. While there are no actual prizes, as always, EXTREME bragging rights are involved!
