I want to take part in good ones...mostly for practice and for pressure. But I'm overwhelmed by the volume of what's on the market, a lot of which is scam or garbage.

Can anyone recommend good writing competitions? I'm mostly interested in short stories.

That's where I found the Bridport Prize competition.

I guess the more money offered, the better the prize? Big Grin
