There’s been a lot of reading going on at CAHQ over the Christmas and New Year, and today we’re delighted to announce the latest Flash Fiction Long List.
But before we do…
We’re asking visitors and subscribers for just a little bit of help…
Cranked Anvil has been going since 2012 – and exclusively as an Indie Press since 2019. We’re a small-scale, non-profit set up, working primarily in our own time around other projets and work commitments. It’s getting more and more difficult to keep going, but we really don’t want to give up!
We know that times are hard at the moment, and everyone is feeling the economic squeeze. Nevertheless, we’re hoping some of you might be willing and able to help us keep going into 2025 and beyond, by way of a small donation.
We’re hoping soon to set up more ways that people can help – and receive rewards for doing so – but for now, we’re just asking you to ‘buy us a cup of coffee’ (or even a grande latte if you want to!)
All you need to do is click the relevant button below, to donate either £3 or £6 via paypal. Thank you in advance to everyone who does so.
(If you would like to donate more, please contact us and we can arrange to do so via a BACS transfer.)
November 2024 Long List
Don’t forget, if you are entering our flash fiction competition, make sure you read all the rules of entry carefully before submitting – we’re still receiving some entries that don’t adhere to the competition rules, and therefore must be disqualified and go unread. And NO writer wants that!
As usual, we had some fantastic entries this quarter – not only from some very regular entrants, but also from many writers brand new to Cranked Anvil. (Welcome to you all, and we hope to read and publish more of your work in the future.)
So here it is – our Nov24 Flash Fiction Long List:
Christine Alderson
Madeleine Armstrong
Martin Barker
Cath Barton
Laura Besley
David Bevan
Dianne Bown-Wilson
Jane Broughton
Chris Cottom
James Edwards
Gary Finnegan
Kathy Goddard
Nigel Hall
Ros Levenson
Gwenda Major
Elizabeth Meyer
Matt Oliver
Tony Oswick
Denarii Peters
Erica Sharlette
Beth Sherman
Heather Walker
Mandy Wheeler
Ryan Yao-Smith
Congratulations to you all. We’ll be announcing the shortlist and winners soon. In the meantime, don’t forget our Fiction123, and the next Flash Fiction Competition deadline is February 28th.
Happy Writing, Folks!
