What's funny? You tell us! The Stringybark Humorous Short Fiction Award is presented to the writer whose story entertains our judges the most. That means anything goes — satire, slapstick, farce, comedy, murder mysteries, love stories, adventure tales, erotica, character sketches, outback yarns or whatever and wherever your fancy takes you — just make us laugh, smile, guffaw or giggle in 1500 words or fewer. The story must have a link (no matter how tenuous) to Australia. The competition is open to anyone over the age of 16 and living on planet earth.
There is a total of $770 worth of prizes in cash and books available — plus publication for place-getters and highly commended authors. There is an entry fee of $9.95 (discounts for multiple entries). Closing date 24 November 2012. Details: http://www.stringybarkstories.
