The SmokeLong Flash Fellowship for Emerging Writers is Open for Applications!

August 5, 2019

The submission period for the SmokeLong Flash Fellowship for Emerging Writers is officially open. A few things are different this year. The first big change is that we’ve increased the award to $1000. The second: Writers previously published by SmokeLong Quarterly are now eligible for this year-long, virtual fellowship!

The winner of the fellowship publishes four stories with SmokeLong, one in each quarterly issue during their appointment. Fellows will work with SmokeLong staff, reading and commenting on stories in the SmokeLong queue, and participate in online writing workshops. We are searching for a writer who is passionate about workshopping their stories and working intensively with our staff for one year.

Writers 18 years or older who do not have a published chapbook or book-length work in any genre (or are not under contract for such) are eligible to apply.

A SmokeLong Summer 26!

A SmokeLong Summer 26 is closer than you think. This year we’re starting early and staying late. The summer just got longer.

As always, at the heart of A SmokeLong Summer is our peer-review workshop in small groups of around 15 writers, drafting to 3 writing tasks each week. Our peer-review workshop is all in writing, so you can participate from anywhere, anytime. This summer our writing tasks will be generative and thematically leaning towards community. Our theme this year: “The Global Flash Village”. Writing doesn’t have a be a game of Solitaire; it can be a team sport.

Our participants often say their writing has dramatically increased in community. A SmokeLong Summer 26 will take you around the world, introducing you to writers from every corner of our beautiful planet.
