Angsana Russell Lee Contest

A quick competition update! I saw this in the back of True Singapore Ghost Stories 20, which you can find at most local bookstores.

Angsana Books, an imprint of Flame of the Forest Publishing, is offering S$2,000/RM4,000 in cash and other prizes for short ghost stories.

Here’s what it says in the back of the book:

All you have to do is to write a ghost story, preferably based on a personal experience. About 700 words will do; we are not fussy about length. We are fussy about entertainment value. Entries must be ORIGINAL, that is, they must be yours and unpublished. If your story is chosen for publication, or if we think it’s a good story, you win an amount up to S$100/RM200. The contest is open to all.

Winners will be announced in the next book but you must claim your prize within six months from the date of the next book. We will write to the winners but please make sure you have listed your names and addresses clearly and correctly.

You can send in photos or illustrations, which may be published as well. You can send in as many entries as you want through snail mail or email.

There’s no deadline in the ad, but best if you send it in early!
