Inside the Race Against Time: Secrets Unveiled from WritersWeekly’s 24-Hour Short Story Showdown!
This Saturday (04/18/26) is WritersWeekly.com’s Spring, 2026 24-Hour Short Story Contest!
The topic (which is a BIG secret until start-time!) will be sent to all registered participants at 12:00 p.m. (noon) central time. Leading up to that, I’ll be frequently checking my email, looking for any questions writers have about the event. Inevitably, someone in another time zone gets confused about when the topic will be released. I’ve become very good at looking up different time zones on Google, and telling the participants at what time the topic will arrive in their inbox…in THEIR time zone.
