Light Reading short story and flash fiction competition

To help publicise the work of Diamond Light Source, the national synchrotron facility (apparently that's a particle accelerator!), new short and flash fiction competitions have been announced.  Entries (which may be in any genre) should be inspired by the facility, the science behind it and the people who work there. Short fiction entries should be up to 3,000 words with a 300 word limit for flash fiction.  The competitions offer a £500 and £50 first prize respectively.  You can find out more about Diamond Light Source here.  The competitions page is here. Both competitions close for entries on 30th November 2011.
