Description
A new year is beginning … or is it?

Our theme for the first drabble contest in 2025 is “End of Days.” 2024 is coming to an end and with it come resolutions for the new year, but what if there is no tomorrow? What do you do when the end is nigh and you have nothing left to lose? What does the end look like and who is there to see it?


This listing is permanently closed for submissions. This may mean one of several things:
  • It was always planned to be a limited-time project, such as a one-time anthology, and the limited-time submission window has ended.
  • The publisher has stated that they are permanently closed, or on hiatus with wording that makes it sound permanent.
  • The publication website is down in a way that appears to be permanent, and we haven't been able to find a new website for them.
  • The publication website is not down, but it appears to have been inactive for more than a year.
