Our dutiful Mega Challenge elves are sorting out the entries to this year’s first annual contest, and will ferry them off to guest celebrity judge, Jeff VanderMeer, very soon. Thank you to everyone who played along and sent us some clever, funny (and sometimes touching) reworkings of the genre’s most exhausted tropes.

Stay tuned for the unveiling and publication of the winners in the next few months.

So, yeah. Brain Harvest is now, officially, back open to regular submissions.
