Uncharted Reprint Prize A project of Uncharted Magazine (see other related projects). About We want to celebrate the stories that may have gotten lost in the shuffle, or are stuck in the limbo of shuttered literary magazines! We know that excellent and exciting stories are published every day, but no one can keep up with them all. This contest is an opportunity for these stories to reach new readers and to live on in excellence on our website. We want to bring light to those lost pieces—the stories that you love but feel are no longer receiving the attention or recognition they deserve.This award is for all of our genres: Science Fiction/Fantasy, Thriller/Mystery/Horror, Young Adult, and Dystopian.
