Contests

Gotham always has a writing contest (or two) going. These contests are a great way to stretch your talent and imagination, and we dangle nice prizes to give you extra motivation. Check out our current contests. And it's worth a look at the winners and finalists in our past contests; the quality of work always amazes us.

Contest

In 101 words or fewer, tell us the story of a niche hobby or special interest. Perhaps it's a totally made-up obsession or a club you're already a member of.

Stories Everywhere June

Deadline: monthly

Each month we invite you to share a very short story for a chance to win a free class.

Your stories (which can be true or made up) will be inspired by what you see, know, or do, and they should relate in some way to our monthly “themes.”
