ConDFW Short Story Contest
Short notice, but I thought I'd mention that ConDFW, of which I am part of the staff :D, is holding a short story contest. The full rules are here. (If you are a winner and do not want your story published in the program book, let us know.)
Basic rules:
--original fic
--1500 words max
--amateur writers only (definition on the linked page above)
--deadline February 10
--prizes: 1st - $50 gift certificate to Half-Price Books, 2nd - $25 GC, 3rd $10 GC. (If you don't have a Half-Price near you, I suspect we'll be quite happy to give you an equivalent gift certificate for something you can get to.)
I note, of course, that we managed not to put a genre requirement on there, so - oo, no official genre requirement. But as ConDFW is a SF/F/H con, I think the general idea was SF/F/H. :)
