The winner will receive $1,000. The second-placed entry will receive $500, and the third-placed, $300. The finalists will each get $100 and all the winning and finalist entries will be published in the December 2024 edition of SmokeLong Quarterly.

The entry fee is $11 for two and $16 for four up to 30 September, and then $14 for two and $22 for four.

Entries close on 15 November.
