Seven storytellers will have 7 minutes to tell a true, personal funny story on the theme "saucy" (whatever that means to you). No notes or props are allowed. The Judges' favorite will be announced at the end of the night and will receive a $150 Cash Prize. The audience will also select its favorite. Both winners go on to compete in Story League ALL-STARS (tournament) where the prize jumps to $300! And the winners will also be featured on our podcast, "Story League WINNERS" (https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/story-league-winners/id789423889?mt=2).

Submit your 100-word story synopsis here for a chance to compete: http://www.storyleague.org/submit-your-story. Deadline is Wednesday, April 9 at 3 o'clock. Our 3 expert judges will consider all story idea submissions and decide which stories they most wish to hear. You will be notified by Friday, April 11, whether you are guaranteed to go on.

Also: 2 storytellers will be selected randomly at the contest.

Pre-selected storytellers will be strongly encouraged to do a phone coaching session for their story.
