This is a particularly interesting free to enter contest, because you can enter poetry, prose poetry or short fiction. I guess some would call the prose option flash fiction? Anyway any of the above are invited. There have been a lot of entries from poets, but so far few short fiction entries. The contest ends on January 1st - entries are limited to 500 words, PROMPT: Take the passage below and make of it what you will. Good luck. Your emotional response to the prompt will carry equal weight to the technical aspects of your entry. “I had gone to no such place but to the smoke of cafes and nights when the room whirled and you needed to look at the wall to make it stop, nights in bed, drunk, when you knew that that was all there was, and the strange excitement of waking and not knowing who it was with you, and the world all unreal in the dark and so exciting that you must resume again unknowing and not caring in the night, sure that this was all and all and all and not caring.” ― Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms poetrysansfrontieres.weebly/contest-page.html
