Join the Coffee Fiction Challenge with a single £5 entry. This purchase allows you to submit one original short story to our cosy competition for unpublished writers. After checkout, you’ll be directed to the submission form where you can upload your story anonymously. Each entry is judged with care, and the top five will be published on our website.

Entrants who choose the Feedback Add‑On receive a 150–300 word personalised critique that includes an overall impression of their story, key strengths, areas for improvement, notes on originality, writing quality, character or concept, emotional impact, and theme adherence, along with a final note of encouragement. The add‑on costs £3 per story, and entrants simply select the option during submission. Feedback is delivered within 14 days after winners are announced. This add‑on does not include line‑by‑line editing, rewriting, multiple critique rounds, or publication advice, and all feedback is final.
