SPRING 2021 ANTHOLOGY COMPETITION LONGLIST

Greetings! The Janus Literary editorial team is delighted to announce that the following titles have made our anthology competition longlist. These stories automatically qualify for publication in our online anthology and are still in the running for the shortlist.

As we are continuing to read blind while we narrow our choices for the shortlist, it is vital that you please DO NOT reveal on social media or elsewhere which story on this list is yours. Doing so will result in your entry being disqualified.

Congratulations and good luck!
