We are pleased to say that Best Microfiction 2025 will be published by Pelekinesis in the summer of 2025. The Best Microfiction anthology series considers stories of only 400 words or fewer. Co-edited by award-winning microfiction writer/editor Meg Pokrass, and Flannery O’Connor Prize-winning author Gary Fincke, the anthology will have Dawn Raffel serve as final judge.
We are accepting submissions from lit mag editors on a rolling basis from November 2nd, 2024 and continuing through to a deadline of December 15th, 2024. Please feel free to nominate stories that have yet to be published in December, as they are stories published in 2024.
Each nomination should be a separate submission. At the top of each submission, please write your own name, the name of your magazine, and the author’s name and e-mail address.
Instructions for Literary Magazine editors:
You are welcome to nominate up to five microfiction stories that were published by your publication in 2024. Please do not include work that has already appeared in an anthology or 'best-of' list, or that has won a prize from another competition. If your nomination wins an award after our selections have been made, that’s fine. But if the work has already won an award, please do not submit it here.
So, to summarize...
