My latest list of forthcoming writing competitions


Another look at forthcoming writing competitions.

The prestigious Bath competition closes at the end of the month.
The first prize is £2,200. Entry costs £9. Stories must be a maximum of 2,200 words long.
My latest list of writing competitions. These are only the ones I might possibly enter myself, so I’m afraid there’s nothing for poets or memoirists.

The prestigious Bridport Prize has introduced a new award for the over sixties. This is not a new competition, but rather a prize for the oldie who comes highest across the four existing categories.
My personal list of writing competitions with deadlines in January (sorry, no poetry ones).
Members may like to see my list of writing competitions coming up in December.
Members might be interested to see the list of writing competitions with deadlines next month I have compiled. The list is far from comprehensive and it only includes competitions I am both eligible for and interested in – so generally no poetry or non-fiction, for example.
