The Literary Taxidermy Writing Competition 2022
Deadline: Mon 11 Jul 2022
The Literary Taxidermy Writing Competition invites writers to create original stories and poems using the opening and closing lines of classic works of literature. The contest is international, open to everyone.

In previous years, participants have tackled works by Lewis Carroll, Dorothy Parker, and Dashiell Hammett, crafting stories and poems in every genre, from science fiction to meta-fiction, and from sonnets to free verse. The contest is international, open to everyone.

For its fifth year, in addition to monetary prizes and publication, the competition offers personal feedback for all honorable mentions. 

There is a $10 entry fee (20% of which will go to Ukraine this year).
