It’s that time of the week again – time for me to add a new market to my ‘More Markets For Freelancers’ page. Do take a look at the page, as you’ll find plenty of other markets to target, as well as on my ‘Markets For Freelancers’ page.
Dark Tales Monthly Short Story Competition:
Dark Tales is a market inviting horror and speculative fiction. They run monthly competitions, which means if you just miss one deadline, your story will be entered into the next competition. The competition is UK based but entries are accepted from overseas.
The maximum word count for each story is 5000 words.
The winning entry receives £100 and publication in Dark Tales. All shortlisted entries are also published and a free copy is sent to the writer of each story published.
Back issues of Dark Tales anthologies can be bought to get a feel for what makes a winning entry.
To find out more, take a look at the website: http://www.darktales.co.uk
