GUY RAZ, host:
If you missed either of our shows last weekend, we announced the return of our Three Minute Fiction contest. We're looking for original fiction - stories under 600 words that can be read in about three minutes.
Hundreds of stories have already poured in. You can read a few selected entries at our Web site. That's npr.org/threeminutefiction, with three minute fiction all spelled out - no spaces. There you'll find the rules for this round and the photograph that should be the inspiration for your story. Again, it's npr.org/threeminutefiction.
