Worried that climate change might destroy the world? Want to share a bit of hope, and have the chance to win a $3,000 Grand Prize?
The Imagine 2200 Climate Fiction Contest offers $8,700 in prizes for authors of short fiction between 3,000 and 5,000 words. The premise is to offer a hopeful vision of a world that has addressed the challenges of climate change.
According to the contest guidelines:
Stories must be set anytime between today and the year 2200, and show a path to a clean, green, and just future. We especially want to read — and share — narratives that center solutions from the communities most impacted by climate change and stories that envision what a truly equitable, decolonized society could look like. In 3,000 to 5,000 words, show us the world you dream of building.
The contest is completely free to enter, and is open to all writers around the world 18 years or older.
