This Is How You Can Win $20,000 By Just Writing 100 Words
This is neither a clickbait nor a scam. But you definitely need to hurry!
So this is where it all started from…a tweet.
So I was just musing lately on the thought of making money from pure writing. What do I mean by pure writing? You—just—write. No selling. Nothing.
“Is that even possible,” I asked myself. So I went to the mighty Google and ran a search. After many useless searches, I typed what I actually meant. “Writing competitions with a cash prize.”
I don’t think there’s any other way to make that much amount of money without doing any sales and/or marketing.
But what I discovered then blew up my mind completely.
I discovered a writing competition that was paying the winner $20,000—and that too for writing just 100 words (maximum)!
That writing competition goes by the name…drumrolls…International Short Tales Contest organized by the César Egido Serrano Foundation.
They are hosting their 6th edition of this competition this year.
Let’s quickly see if you’re eligible to enter this competition:

That’s it. yes, I’m not kidding! That’s the only eligibility required. Residents of any country can participate. You can send your entry in any one of the four languages—English, Spanish, Arabic or Hebrew. A maximum of two entries can be submitted by one person.
What’s the prize?
An overall first prize of 20,000 dollars is awarded for the best story in any of the languages authorized in the contest, i.e. English, Spanish, Arabic or Hebrew. Three prizes of $ 2,000 each will be awarded for the best stories in each of the other remaining languages admitted in the contest, that are not winners of the main prize.
