"The essential challenge of Friday Flash Fiction is to write a fresh new story of 100 words (or just under) in time for publication that following Friday."​

Please note that we are currently only accepting a limited number of submiasions. Hopefully back to normal soon.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: WE NEED TIME OFF!
OUR SUBMISSIONS WINDOW IS NOW MONDAY 00:00 TO THURSDAY 23:00 UK TIME ONLY
SUBMISSIONS SUBMITTED OUTWITH THAT WINDOW, INCLUDING ON THE FRIDAY ITSELF,
WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED.
PLEASE NOTE ALSO THAT WE ARE NO LONGER "CARRYING OVER" LATE SUBMISSIONS.

Submissions: 100 WORD STORIES

Writers submitting classic 90-100 word Friday Flash Fiction stories should use THIS page.
Stories should be much nearer the 100 words than the 90 – it's for "100 words or just under."
​
​Please complete the form (using the Storybox below) for the stories themselves – Word attachments will not be opened.

    STORYBOX (for stories of 90-100 words)

    Please complete the form below, taking special care to complete the box immediately below EXACTLY as requested.
    THE HOUSE STYLE IS IMPORTANT:
    Please include the appropriate capitals, the comma, the word "by", relevant spaces and the name you wish to use.
    ​
    e.g. The Old Man and the Sea, by Ernest Hemingway (This will be copied and pasted directly to the top of your story.)
    ​
    ​
    Must be 90-100 words (inc) long. If the story makes little sense without its title, the title will be counted in the wordcount.
    ​Please make sure your wordcount is accurate.
    Please insert your story – you don't need the title again – into the "CLASSIC FFF STORY" box below.
    (If you have any special instructions, such as italics, etc, please just add them at the end of the story. We'll try to accommodate if we can.)
    Many people don't realise they're using a proxy server. Usually, they're using a college, school or business network, but sometimes there are other technical issues. We check your IP address HERE.

    Please... before you click "Send My Story", ​make one last check that:
    YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE FORM EXACTLY AS REQUESTED.
    TAKE PARTICULAR CARE WITH THE TOP BOX​

By pressing Send My Story, I verify that the details I provide on this form are accurate and that my submission has been written within the last 7 days and has not been previously published elsewhere. (See top of page – simultaneous submissions are fine, however.)

​THE DEADLINE FOR ALL SUBMISSIONS FOR FRIDAY PUBLICATION WILL BE THE NIGHT BEFORE, THURSDAY AT 23:00 UK TIME. SUBMISSIONS SUBMITTED LATER THAN THAT, OR ON THE FRIDAY ITSELF, WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED.
