Ron Earl Phillips is running a contest/challenge over on his blog. http://between.ronearl.com/2010/08/the-needle-in-the-box-contest The winner receives a copy of the Summer issue of Needle magazine. Ron is looking for crime/noir stories up to 2000 words about receiving an unsolicited unmarked box. The deadline is September 10, details at the link.
Over at the Writer's Digest online site I discovered that they run a monthly no-fee flash contest called Your Story. http://www.writersdigest.com/YourStory/ They give you a writing prompt and you have 750 words. The deadline for the current contest is also September 10. There is an online form for submissions and there's prizes.
And at AskWendy.com there's five new contests listed including a hint fiction contest. You can find the listings here http://askwendy.wordpress.com

Another Hint fiction contest. Cool. I better check that out.
Thanks for the head's up on the Needle contest. I love that story (Button, Button by Richard Matheson) and am looking forward to ripping it off... er, coming up with something totally original...
Good luck, gentlemen!!
