The Stringybark Seven Deadly Sins Award is our second celebration of Pope Gregory I’s attempt at categorising human frailties. He reckoned there were seven major sins: wrath, gluttony, lust, greed, pride, jealousy and sloth. Stringybark invites you to write a short story of up to 1500 words that addresses one (or more) of these sins in your story. We last ran this competition in 2012 and it led to a fabulous anthology of short stories published in The Seven Deadly Sins (2012). The Prize value for this competition is over $1000 in cash and books. International entries most welcome.
