The prize is for a short piece of stand-alone prose in either Fiction or Non-Fiction (1,500 – 3,000 words). It can be adapted from a longer work but must be satisfying to read by itself. The prize invites writers from all walks of life, whether writing a short story, essay, memoir, piece of reportage, historical investigation, or other hybrid form, as long as the writer reflects the sensibility of the prize.
Submissions close 31 March 2025.
