Sorry? Did you just say you'd love to enter an almost free* festive flash fiction competition to win £500?
I thought you did!
Well as coincidence would have it, that is exactly what we've got going on in this very episode.
So step this way, my cheeky little word-purveyor, and cast your well oiled ears at our glorious 350 word Flash Fiction Competition.
That's it.... yep... cast them freely.... mmmm.... that's the ticket.
*I say 'almost free', cos it's only a pound to enter. And we only did that to keep the pesky AI enterers from entering.
So, well... that pretty much qualifies as free doesn't it?
