A new volume of micro fictions celebrating languages of Aotearoa!

National Flash Fiction Day celebrates 10 years: 2012-2022. This year we will publish an anthology of microfictions with the theme ‘Languages of Aotearoa’.

We are looking for work from writers with bilingual and multilingual origins/ experiences. The book will include two kinds of micros and prose poems:

· works, with translation into English, up to 100 words

· works that are translingual, using English plus other languages to tell the story.

There are more than 40 languages spoken across Aotearoa – and we invite these voices to sing out!

Submissions are open through 10 July 2022.

What to send:  A microfiction of approximately 100 words (allowing variation across languages); 2 submissions allowed from each author

How to submit:  Send an email with your set of micros to flashfrontier@gmail.com – and please write in the subject line: MICRO ANTHOLOGY SUBMISSION

Please ensure quality across your languages. Submissions will be read by a team of language consultants.
