The entries need not be restricted to typical cultural settings. Your Sikh could be an astronaut in outer space, a detective with Scotland Yard, a nurse in a large Detroit hospital, an engineer in Silicon Valley, an accountant with a Nairobi public-relations firm, or a film director in Hollywood. The possibilities are endless. Please note that this contest is open to anyone who is interested in Sikhism or would like to actively participate in the literary efforts of the Sikhs. You need not be a Sikh to participate, although some knowledge of the Sikh way of life would be essential to a well-told story.
Grand prizes are open to all participants, irrespective of age.
In addition, there are special prizes for our younger writers. There is no word limit for your story. Make it as long or as short as you like. Use 300 words or 3000, but remember to make each word count. Your story must be in English.
