('Blaring' © Kombipom, 2011)

We would like to congratulate the following writers
whose work has been selected for the 2017 THRESHOLDS
International Short Fiction Feature Writing Competition longlist.

The shortlist results will be posted on The Forum next week, in a special feature about the 2017 competition. In the meantime, our hearty thanks go out to all those who took the time to write a piece and enter. It is always astounding to receive such a high number of entries for such an individual competition – we know these aren’t pieces you’ve had sitting in a drawer for the last six months – and every year the quality of the prose seems to get better and better. Judging this competition is a real pleasure for all involved. More to come next week.
