Other considerations:
	Open to all subjects, all themes, all writers. (This category has been won by both beginning and veteran writers - all are welcome!)
	Word count: Most submissions to the Fiction Open run 2,000 to 8,000 words, but from 2,000 to 20,000-word stories are fine.
	Reading fee is $19 per story. Please, no more than 3 submissions per category.
	Winners and finalists will be officially announced in the September 1 bulletin, and contacted directly by August 27.
	Simultaneous submissions are okay. Please notify immediately if your submission is accepted elsewhere.
	Stories accepted for publication are presented in a highly regarded print publication where literary short fiction persists in the real world and beyond the next post.

We look forward to reading your work!
