New Year, Same Goal!
What better way to connect with fellow students from around the globe than through writing? To hear thousands of voices in all their glorious diversity and to give your creativity the platform it deserves?
Starting September 29th, Short Édition invites students from all participating universities to submit their short stories of 7,500 characters or less for our annual inter-university contest, the Long Story Short Award 2025.
To participate, students are invited to imagine a story based on the theme:
« All in »
To go "All In"!
Take a leap, risk everything, follow a dream, bluff your way through, or fight for someone. Whether it’s love, ambition, rebellion, truth or just the thrill of the gamble, hold nothing back!
What do you gain (or lose) when there’s no plan B?
Let your imagination run wild and be creative, the story is yours to tell!
Through this contest, whether you win a prize or not, your work will be published online alongside those of fellow students from campuses worldwide, creating a bridge between thousands of students around the world. In addition, Short Édition will be considering all submissions for international publication in their 500+ Dispensers worldwide.
