Mslexia, the women’s writing magazine, is now open for submissions for their 2014 short story competition. I mention this because this judge for this year is Clarke Award winner, Jane Rogers. The first prize is £2,000 and there’s a £10 entry fee. Maximum word count 2,200. Deadline 17th of March. Further details here. You do have to be a woman to enter (they don’t say what they mean by that), but the contest is open to all nationalities and countries.
