National Flash Fiction Day 2020 is just around the corner, and we'll be celebrating as usual with a veritable flood of flash, starting from 00:01 BST and ending at midnight on Saturday, 6 June.

If you'd like to be a part of this year's Flood, do send us some work!  We are open for submissions through the week and are happy to read up to three 500-word stories per author on any theme, in any style.  Submissions are free.

Full submission guidelines can be found on the FlashFlood website and you can read about our wonderful team of editors here.

Don't have anything new?  No problem!  Previously published submissions are fine as long as you retain copyright and any period of exclusivity has lapsed.  We consider all previously unpublished work for award nominations such as Best Small Fictions, Best Microfictions and the Pushcart Prize.

We can't wait to read your work!

FlashFlood will be open for submissions from 00:01 BST Monday, 25 May to 23:59 BST Sunday, 31 May.
