Writer’s Digest is holding a Short Short Fiction Competition, without listing their genre or non-genre requirements, for pieces under 1,500 words. Winners up to the 25th place will be compensated financially, but first place can take home $3,000, national exposure from Writer’s Digest magazine, and paid travel for the Writer’s Digest Conference. All entrants will be given the opportunity to attend a webinar hosted by award-winning author Jacob Appel.

The deadline is December 15, and authors can register and pay online or offline. Entry fee is $25 per manuscript. Winning manuscripts are scheduled to publish in May 2015, with early orders being shipped in June. Stories will appear in the July/August edition of the magazine.
