The submissions window for Fictive Dream’s September Slam 2018 is now closed and we’ll be publishing the seven winning stories from September 24^th to 30^th – one new short story for each day. Our thanks to Nicholas Royle who supported September Slam by kindly providing the text upon which our Slam stories are based. Our thanks must also go to everyone who helped to promote the competition and to those who submitted stories. 

We remain open to standard submissions and, as always, we’re interested in short stories with a contemporary feel (500 – 2,500 words). They may be on any subject. They may be challenging, dramatic, playful, exhilarating or cryptic. Above all, they must be well-crafted and compelling.

We’re looking forward to receiving your best work!
