The competition is organized by Desperate Literature, an international bookshop in Madrid, Spain. We are looking for well-crafted, boundary-pushing fiction. But a great story of any genre is a great story, so we’re also looking for anything with a strong sense of character, engagement, and tension. Submissions must be previously unpublished works of fiction of up to 2000 words and must be in English. Stories should be submitted in .pdf format.
