SlapAStory.com - Online Short Story Competition

Do you fancy yourself as a bit of a writer? Do you feel it’s about time to show the world what you can do? If that happens to be the case, you are advised to direct your browser to the SlapAStory website, as this online resource will enable you to upload a short story for everybody to read and comment upon.

Navigation options include a “Popular” category that lists notable works that have been submitted, along with a “Upcoming” section were drafts are submitted for writers to see which impression their forthcoming stories elicit on first looks. A tag cloud is also featured for additional convenience, and it comprises all major literary genres such as “Romance”, “Mystery” and “Horror” to name just a few.

When it boils down to submitting a story, this can be done in an anonymous manner so that you can actually submit a work that way and ask friends to look it over. This means you can have a completely objective and honest outlook on any of your pieces, and act in consequence.

“Slap a Story is a place for people like you and me: for people who like to read and write. Submit your original short story (heck, you can do it anonymously) for everyone to read and discuss. As well as rate and comment on stories submitted by others.”

It is a perfect outlet for aspiring writers who are honing their skills.

How long can the submitted pieces be? What about copyright?
