Stringybark Stories is pleased to announce its latest short fiction award.  The Stringybark Short Story Award is our signature award and is run each year.  It has an open theme and is only limited by your imagination.  Our only proviso is that your story must have a link to Australia, no matter how tenuous.  Writers have 1500 words to produce a short story that will delight and entertain the judges. International entries welcome.

There is over $810 worth of prizes in cash and books available.  Closing date for entries is 19 January  2014.

The launch went off well and with only one small problem... I forgot my wallet and had to buy a book later.
