This is it: your last day to enter the Creative Loafing Fiction Contest. The deadline for submissions is today, Thurs. Dec. 22, at 5 p.m. The theme is "Heat."
Once the judges have received all the entries, they'll choose a top 10 and post those stories on the contest site at 12 noon Fri. Dec. 23. Readers will then have until 12 noon Fri. Dec. 30 to vote for their favorites. We'll announce the winner of the judges' and the readers' top prizes in the issue of Jan. 5, followed by a public reading at CL Space on Sun. Jan. 8.
