On Friday August 7th, at the World Science Fiction Convention in Montreal, Angry Robot author Lauren Beuke launched a short story competition. The prize includes a chance to have your short story published in Lauren's next book, Zoo City. In order to enter, all you need to do is write a short story (up to 3000 words) based in the Moxyland universe, using characters, themes and settings from the book to create your own work. An excerpt of Moxyland is available to read on authonomy now. Or, if you prefer, you can read the whole book using browse inside.
You can enter the competition by posting your entry into the comments section of the Moxyland book page. Over the next couple of months, Lauren will be on the site and reading every story with her favourite 3 going into her next book, out in Spring 2010. The closing date for entries is September 11th 2009 and we will only accept one entry per person.
The winners will be announced by the Angry Robot team at FantasyCon 2009.
