Ekphrastic Fiction Contest (February 2020)
This month’s feature is an illustration titled, “Mid Shift” and it was created by Bobby @bodbby . This is a truly talented artist with a lot of impressive pieces, so if you like this illustration, I hope you will check out her Tumblr page to see more incredible pieces!
Basic Directions: Create an original fictitious piece based on the artwork above.
Length: Your entry does not have to be long! It can be as short as one sentence or one paragraph. Entries must be shorter than 500 words.
Deadline: All entries must be received before February 25th. The winner will be announced February 29th.
How to submit your entry: Once you have written your Ekphrastic Fiction piece, you can enter this contest either of these ways:
1. Fill out this form to enter the contest.
2. Reblog this post with your story attached.
You can do either one of these to enter the contest. You do not need to do both.
Contest Prize: I will feature the winning piece on my blog and link directly to the writer’s page in order to promote his/her/their work. The winning piece will also have a permanent spot on my contest page. This gives writers a chance to have their work shared and seen by others. Sorry, but at this time I am broke, so no cash prizes will be given.
WTF is Ekphrastic Fiction? Ekphrastic Fiction stories are short fictitious pieces inspired by a work of art. To see some of my Ekphrastic Fiction pieces, click here.
Will there be any future contests? Yes! As long as there is enough interest, there will be a new contest, and a new piece of art work, posted every month. Check out my page on the 1st of each month to see the new contest.
I am an artist. How can I have my work used for this contest? If you have art work that you would like used for this contest, you can read my post for artists here, and fill out this form.
I can’t wait to read your submissions!
