Group-Sponsored Second Annual Tasha Mann Award Contest

Group-Sponsored Second Annual Tasha Mann Award Contest

Details

Deadline:Aug 20, 2016
Fee:Free

This is a group-sponsored contest in honor of our friend and fellow Scribber, Tasha Mann, who passed away on June 15, 2015. Tasha used futuristic or alternate worlds in many of her works, and that's the theme of this contest: the members of the Tasha Mann Critique Group want you to tell us a complete story, in 3,000 words or less, where the setting is in either an alternate world, or a futuristic one, or both. All genres are welcome, but the alternate or futuristic world must be an obvious thematic element in the story. Send us your best.
