Short Story Competition

New York Times bestselling author Cassandra Clare has written the opening to a short horror story which will be revealed at the Summer Scream. Attendees of the event will have an exclusive preview, plus the chance to ask our top authors some expert advice on how to finish the story. After finding out from our panel what inspires them to write scary fiction, you will have the chance to enter our short story competition to finish the story. Cassandra's opening will be available online from a week following the event, but as the deadline for the competition is only a month from the event, attendees of the Summer Scream will have a head start!

The deadline for story entries is 20th July. Further details will be available on the day, and online the week after. The competition will be judged by Sarwat Chadda and the winner will be announced on 5th August.
