Kickback Media Competition

Hi,

I have a question about the Kickback Media competition and wondered who is best to email?

If the best place to ask the question is here then I'll pose my question(s) now!

- Is the 2,000 word a guide or do you have to write as close to that as possible? My scene is currently 1,700 words...

- The guidelines state to set the scene in a world that isn't purely naturalistic - my scene is dystopian fantasy - is this okay?

Thanks!

Rebecca

Hi Rebecca,

The 2000 words is a guideline, however if you feel you've done all you can in your story, then an entry will of course be accepted at a slightly lower word count.

Yes, a dystopian fantasy setting is absolutely fine.

Best of luck with the competition!
