STRW Flash Fiction Contest
As the deadline for the end of our flash fiction contest approaches, there’s still plenty of time to get your entries in. Flash fiction or micro fiction is just, that a tiny story. It can be in any genre, any trope, and for this contest and always for this blog, it must be LGBTQIA.
Even a short time ago, I would never have thought we would be entering the sort of political times, rough waters nationally that seem to be ahead of us. Maybe I’m wrong but I think we find ourselves moving along a scale of emotions, ranging from disbelief to shock to horror to anger and anywhere in-between.
Scattered Thoughts and Rogue Words tries to stay away from politics and concentrates on books (although with subject matter those can intertwine). But this may be a time when an overlap occurs.
Need to give voice to your emotions? Write about it and send it in. We are going to be running our entries here for everyone to read. Story rights remain with the authors. We are still awarding gift certificates to the first 5 entries. Our deadline is still November 30th at midnight EST. All flash fiction should be sent to scatteredthoughtsandroguewords@gmail.com. You are only limited by your imagination and the fact that you should be 18 years of age or older. Open to everyone! Now get writing.
We have a wonderful week ahead of us, filled with great tours and giveaways. We are reviewing several audiobooks and many new books getting released just this week, some I’m sure you’ve had on your TBR list.
Its also the start of the holiday season so more and more holiday stories will be making appearances here. This week we having Barb the Zany Old Lady reviewing A Christmas Hex by Jordan L. Hawk and Stella reviewing Merry Christmas, Mr Miggles by Eli Easton to launch our holiday reviews. Starting December 1, Scattered Thoughts and Rogue Words will be reviewing the Dreamspinner Press Advent stories as we did last year but more on that later.
For now,for those Americans, living in the U.S. and expats abroad, have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Be safe, be happy, and many wonderful books to you!
