The winning stories will be published on TripFiction, a website where locations are paired with books as a resource for armchair and actual travellers, and author and journalist David Hewson will critique the winning story.

All entries must be original and unpublished. The minimum wordcount is 750, and the maximum, 3,000.

There is fee of £5 per entry.
