Literary contests in Chile

Overview

The literary website Fuerte y Feliz has launched its first micro-story contest to mark its second anniversary. Aiming to highlight the identity of the Aconcagua Valley, the competition is open to residents aged 15 and older. Participants must submit original, unpublished works of up to 200 words under a pseudonym, and the use of artificial intelligence tools is strictly prohibited. Supported by local businesses and writer Ernesto Di-Blasis, the submission deadline is October 15, 2026, with results expected on November 7, 2026.

In a broader context of Chilean cultural promotion, a separate micro-story competition titled ‘200 years, 200 words’ in Castro has concluded its submission phase. Organized by the Revive Castro program and the Directorate of Culture and Tourism, that contest commemorated the Bicentennial of Chiloé's incorporation into the Republic of Chile.
