Just a Little Fiction

Your daily source for fiction

How to Submit

Submitting a story is easy and free. Just follow the guidelines below.

Stories must be less than 200 words (not including the title). Why 200 words? Writing short stories is often times a challenging task. Whittling those stories down to less than 200 words takes that to an even more demanding level. These stories can be daunting to think about in the beginning, but as you develop different ideas the rewards are truly remarkable.

Email your story to submissions@justalittlefiction.com. Do not attach any documents. No emails will be opened that contain an attachment. Paste your story into the body of the email. Include any information you would like posted with your story. You can use your real name or a fictional one. If you'd like your age and gender posted with the story, include that as well. For the subject use: Submission: Title of the Work. For example:

Submission: Only One Heart Left

Any topic is accepted. No entries with vulgar language or graphic sex/violence will be used. Humor, horror, mystery, romance, love, fantasy and everything in between will be accepted. Have fun and surprise us! If you'd like a genre included with your story, please send in the body of the email along with other information and the story.

Don't worry about the tense. You can use any you like (past, present, etc.).

Proofread your stories! Stories with massive spelling and grammatical issues will not be considered for a daily spot.

Just a Little Fiction retains no rights to any work published on the site. All authors can request their story be removed at any time. We do not guarantee that a story will be posted. The author will be emailed with an approximate date the story will be shown. All short stories must be fiction works of your own creation and cannot be previously published. There will be no payment of any kind to any contributing author.
