Description

While traveling we always have new experiences, whether they are amazing, life changing or just disillusioning. Tell us your travel story. It may deal with a travel journey to a new place, time traveling, revisiting one's past, visiting a lost love or a new one, or an inner journey. Travel reports can be as much about one's internal navigation of their emotions as a physical voyage. Or maybe you want to narrate about your imaginary journey to Mars? Enter the latest BookRix Short Story Writing Contest for free to read exciting, interesting and fascinating travel stories or even write one to share it with other readers and writers. Your story can be fiction or non-fiction: Tell us your travel story, turn your wordsmith powers into positive cash flow and fame...

Not an author? No problem you can also enter as a contest reader and vote for your favorite story. It is our readers who choose the top ten stories that will then be reviewed by our distinguished panel of judges.

$1.800,00 in cash prizes to win for authors.

10 Amazon Vouchers each worth $20 to win for readers.
