格式
Maximum length is 250 words, title excluded.
Entries should be typed in a plain legible font.
Entries will be read and judged anonymously. Do not put your name, address, email, telephone number or any personally identifying information on any page of your document.
If the piece has no title, then its first five words will be used as the title. The document name will be changed to a serial number, so ideally your title should appear above your piece, not just as the document name. It does not count as part of the 250 word limit.
Acceptable file types are doc, docx, txt and pdf. Do not send .odt or .pages as we may not be able to open them and will disqualify if we can’t.
The file name is up to you; we save it as FF001.docx, FF002.docx etc, anyway.
最大長度為 250 個字，不包括標題。
條目應以簡單易讀的字體輸入。
參賽作品將以匿名方式進行閱讀和評審。請勿將您的姓名、地址、電子郵件、電話號碼或任何個人識別信息放在文檔的任何頁面上。
如果作品沒有標題，則將使用其前五個單詞作為標題。文檔名稱將更改為序列號，因此理想情況下，您的標題應顯示在作品上方，而不僅僅是文檔名稱。它不計入 250 字數限制的一部分。
可接受的文件類型為 doc、docx、txt 和 pdf。請勿發送 .odt 或 .pages，因為我們可能無法打開它們，如果無法打開，我們將取消資格。
文件名由你決定；無論如何，我們將其保存為 FF001.docx、FF002.docx 等。
