Six Words Story Contest:

** Six words stories, however, are a completely different ball game. The ability to write six word stories is a rare and highly-valued gift. In an effort to honor this precious genre of storytelling and to encourage literary ambition, Rajnigandha brings to you the ‘Rajnigandha Six Words Story Contest’.

** It doesn’t matter if you are a budding talent or an old hat at writing, or whether writing is something you always wanted to do but never had the courage. If you can tell us a story in just six words, you have a chance to be one of the lucky few who will get rewarded by Rajnigandha.

** The contest shall identify, showcase and reward 9 of the best six-words stories. The names of three winners of each day shall be announced in the third week of December post the 3-day long Rajnigandha Times Literature festival, 2015 gets over through Rajnigandha’s Facebook Page and Twitter handle.
