Dually Noted is Brink Literacy Project's group writing project. Each submission should attempt to match the previous section of the story, in both style and content. Our editors will choose the best 500-word submission every week and add it to the current story. Stories whose quality meets Brink's high quality standard may be published in F(r)iction, our triannual print publication.

SUBMISSIONS OPEN MONDAY 04 MARCH 2024

The theme for this cycle of Dually Noted is: "Sideshow Acts for the End of the World."

Each 500-word section should be a complete story arc. Writers are free to submit stories of any genre, subject, or style (even poetry is welcome!), but submissions should adhere to the theme. Feel free to use your imagination and come up with interesting ways to incorporate this idea. Submissions are due Fridays at 11:59PM PST. We’ll post the best submission the following Thursday!
