This is the very first of many a writing prompt/contest from P53 and Meg Pokrass! We are soliciting writing gems of the choicest cut and clarity! Submissions will be judged by Press 53 staff, and the winner will get a free book and see their name in lights! (on the blog, when their work is published here next Friday). Instructions and details below

How to submit:

2 ways:

Use the submit button in the tool bar to the right. Nothing will post directly to the blog until it has been approved by our moderator.

None of this will be shared, and if your piece wins, your contact information will be removed from the published post. If you have any trouble with this, please cut and paste your piece into the body of an e-mail and send it to: meg (at) bondomail (dot) com
