The IT Tallaght Short Story Competition 2018 is now open until August 13, 2018.
Free to enter. Judge: Deirdre Sullivan
Prizes: €500, €250, €150. The winning and shortlisted entries may be published in an anthology.
Submit short stories (1,500-2,000 words). There is no restriction on theme or style, however the planned 2018 anthology will be called Stand Fast! and they are looking for strong stories that (even loosely) reflect this title.
