The 7th Annual Writer’s Digest Short Short Story Competition is accepting entries! We’re looking for fiction that’s bold, brilliant … but brief. Send us your best in 1,500 words or less. But don’t be too long about it–the deadline is December 1, 2006.

The Grand-Prize winner will receive $3,000 (that’s $2– or more–per word).

Plus, the 1st- through 25th-place manuscripts will be printed in the 7th Annual Writer’s Digest Short Short Story Competition Collection, published by Trafford Publishing.
