Green Lady Press is offering up-and-coming writers from around the world the chance to be published. We will award prizes for outstanding fiction, plus feature selected works in an online anthology for our launch. The theme is ‘resistance’ and we will be looking for innovative interpretations. Deadline is November 30th, midnight GMT. Winners and shortlisted entries will be announced in January 2015. The anthology will be made available free for all entrants and their families.

1st Place: £50

2nd Place: £25

During the competition process, exceptional entries may be singled out for ‘Author Highlight’ features which may involve a brief excerpt, Q and A, and link to the author’s website. 

10th Sept update: we’ve had some wonderful entries so far! Should the quality of the anthology be high enough, we will invest in a small print run for The Book of Resistance; a beautiful book for sale in UK gift shops.

18th Sept update: please note that ‘resistance’ does not always have to be overt. We appreciate subtlety too, and the many ways in which the word can be interpreted!

Guidelines:

* The work must be your own, and previously unpublished in print or online. 

* Word limit: 3000 words. We prefer shorter, highly compact stories. 

* The entry fee is £5. A maximum of 3 stories may be submitted. 

* All genres are permitted.
