We are proud to announce that two stories published in On Spec last year are on the lists of finalists for this year’s Fiction prize.

“Cold War” by Ottawa author Lynne M. MacLean, may have you thinking twice about going for a dip in the ocean. “Elegy”, by Calgary writer Sarah Johnson, is a moving tale about love and loss.

We can’t play favourites, and so we wish both of our authors all the best in this juried award competition. The fiction prize will be announced with the winners in other magazine categories, at a virtual event June 25th.
