Imagine 2200: Climate Fiction for Future Ancestors (no fee)
$8,700 IN PRIZES AND PUBLICATION
Deadline: May 5, 2022 | No entry fee
Submissions are now being accepted for Imagine 2200: Climate Fiction for Future Ancestors, the annual climate fiction contest from Fix, Grist's solutions lab.
Imagine 2200 seeks original short stories of 3,000 to 5,000 words that envision the next 180 years of clean, green, and just futures. Judges include Grace L. Dillon, Arkady Martine, and Sheree Renée Thomas.
The top three winners will be awarded $3,000, $2,000, and $1,000 respectively, and nine finalists will receive a $300 honorarium. Those 12 authors will be published in an immersive digital collection this fall. Conjure your wildest dreams for society — all the justice, resilience, and abundance you can imagine — and put those dreams on paper.
There's no fee to enter, so if you're ready to get writing, you can find our submissions portal here. If you'd like to get in touch, you can reach us at imaginefiction@grist.org.
