A publication thrives on engaging content. Covering news and highlighting are important to keeping an audience informed, but the powerful stories of individual readers are often ignored. In the search for articles that express the passions of our publication, we know that the power of stories is largely determined by whether or not it relates to each reader. With this in mind, we’ve joined NewsPortalSite Corporation’s “Really Short Story Contest”, along with several other publishers, and are calling all writers to join the fun.

We’d like our readers to participate in the writing process and to be involved in the stories of our publication. After all, sometimes our readers are our best writers.

Join the Contest:
Submit a story or article that fits within the theme of our magazine. For inspiration, take a look at our article sections and write a story that relates to one of our designated topic. Your article can be a local news report, discussion of a current event, story about an experience you’ve had, about a healing modality, a fiction piece, or really anything that inspires you to begin writing! We’re asking for stories to be 1000 words or less, written in English, and geared toward the existing content of our site. Stories will be judged by how well-written and captivating they are so show us some personality.

Prizes:
The first-place winner will receive $100! Second and third place will be rewarded $50 and $25 respectively.

Even if you are not chosen as a winner, your Story could be part of a content feed that supplies stories to other websites! Exceptional articles will be compiled for syndication, allowing another publication to release one story a day on their own site. With your story as a part of this feed, you receive the benefit of having your audience expanded and the change to inform or inspire people from around the world!

Date:
The Really Short Story Contest will run from now to August 31st. Submit a story within the month of August in order to have it considered. Finalists and an overall winner will be announced during the last week of August. (We may have more than one finalist.)
