FutureScapes Science Fiction Short Story Competition
From the Guardian comes news of a Science Fiction short story competition:
Sounds interesting, but as always check the terms and conditions before entering (it's also sponsored by Sony)."Fancy yourself as the next HG Wells, Cormac McCarthy or Margaret Atwood? The Guardian has teamed up with the FutureScapes project to invite all budding writers to submit their visions of the year 2025 to a short story competition.
The winner will have the honour of seeing their story appear alongside work by New York Times bestselling thriller writer Michael Marshall Smith, fantasy children's author Marcus Sedgwick, Kate Harrison, creator of the Secret Shopper series, "sex and shopping" novelist Lesley Lokko and cultural commentator Markus Albers."
Just as interesting as the competition itself though are the five stories that are published online by Michael Marshall Smith, Marcus Sedgwick, Kate Harrison, Lesley Lokko and Markus Albers.
