300 words... any genre... any style... go wild with the whatifs!

What if...

  • a minor misunderstanding spirals out of control when gossip spreads like wildfire...
  • a tiny detail got wrong causes a massive uproar...
  • a harmless comment on social media leads to viral chaos...
  • a well intended compliment is taken the wrong way and the consequences could be catastrophic, unless...
  • the end of the world is nigh... or is it?

Any of these or whatever springs to mind... have fun and happy writing.

Deadline: 28th September 2024

Please email stories to: submissions@harveyduckman.com with the subject line STORM and please check out our submission guidelines so you know what you're letting yourself in for (original work only, fiction or creative non-fiction welcome, no AI, no fee, no royalties, for fun only, all proceeds to the Harvey project for future stuff...).

If I miss out your story, it's probably an oversight... please give me a shout and I'll fix it asap.

A note on wobbly word counts: 300 words is just a rough guide.. anything up to 900 is fine xx
