Realms Unbound Fantasy Writing Contest

Why Join This Writing Competition?

🧙 Step into enchanted kingdoms, ancient ruins, and forgotten prophecies with the Realms Unbound Fantasy Writing Contest. This is your chance to showcase the full force of your imagination—just leave the shapeshifters behind.

✨ We’re calling on fantasy authors to create spellbinding tales that feature powerful magic, epic quests, dark forces, and noble heroes—but no werewolves, dragonshifters, or other shapechangers. We want new worlds and fresh myths that push the boundaries of classic fantasy.

📅 Submit by July 31, 2025, for your chance to win cash prizes, special badges, and a spotlight on Inkitt’s platform!
