Annual, March
Held annually since 1996, this competition is announced by K K Bagala and LCA – Koloman Kertész Bagala, publisher of original Slovak literature. The mission of the competition is to identify new prose writers and to give young talented authors a chance. The competition is public and anonymous. Any author who has written a short story in the Slovak language that has not yet been published may enter it in the competition. Ten authors are awarded annually – the first three places and seven financial prizes. Awarded works are then published in the Short Story anthologies, and authors get offers for publication of a separate book of prose from K K Bagala publishers.
