Matt Tompkins’ Souvenirs and Other Stories is three months away! This little book releases on June 15th, 2016. We’ve got a batch of advance review copies ready, and we’re looking forward to sending these books out into the world (and hey, shoot us an e-mail if you’re a reviewer and want to request a copy).
We’ll also be sure to set aside at least one copy for our table at the upcoming AWP Conference (table #1238). Stop by if you want to get an up-close sneak peak at this forthcoming Conium Press title.

Last year’s flash contest was judged by Laura Ellen Joyce, and she chose Caitlin Scarano as the winner. We’re looking forward to unveiling the micro-chap for Caitlin Scarano’s winning story, “Pitcher of Cream,” at the upcoming AWP Conference in Los Angeles.
So we don’t want to completely steal Caitlin’s glory here, but we’ve be aching to tell you that Leesa Cross-Smith will be the 2016 Flash Fiction Contest judge!
Leesa is the author of Every Kiss a War, and she’s co-editor of WhiskeyPaper. Her work has appeared in SmokeLong Quarterly, Little Fiction, Hobart, NANO Fiction, Monkeybicycle, Juked, Word Riot, Sundog Lit, The Rumpus, and tons of other places. Check out Leesa’s website for more information on her work.
The Conium Review 2016 Flash Fiction Contest is open for submissions from October 1st to December 1st. The winner receives $300, online publication, publication as a broadside or micro-chap, and a copy of the judge’s book. Full guidelines are already available here.
We’re glad to have Leesa Cross-Smith as the judge, and we hope you’ll submit some fantastic flash to this contest. If you want to stay informed about this and other opportunities at The Conium Review, you can sign up for our e-mail newsletter here (we don’t spam you; just one e-mail per month with an easy unsubscribe link at the bottom).
