2025 Anthology now available!
Since 2023, the Not Quite Write Prize for Flash Fiction has challenged writers around the world to break the writing rules in compelling new ways.
In this latest anthology, we bid farewell to the infamous anti-prompt, but not before celebrating the 24 winning and shortlisted stories from all four rounds of the competition in 2025.
A veritable smorgasbord of prize-winning stories to satisfy every craving!
From the sublime to the macabre, these authors have ventured into the unknown, wrestled with passive voice, rescued their own darlings while slaying ours, and lived to tell the tales! Enjoy author insights plus commentary from the Not Quite Write judges, and watch as the limits of flash fiction dissolve all over again.
Each year, the Not Quite Write Prize Anthology showcases the winning and shortlisted stories across each round of the competition – each with its own take on creative storytelling.
