Thought this was worth mentioning:
On Saturday, host Guy Raz and The New Yorker's literary critic, James Wood, introduced NPR's new summer writing contest: Three-Minute Fiction. Listeners are invited to send in original short stories, up to three minutes long. Throughout the summer, Wood will select his favorites and read them on the air.
