I've devised this blog to promote writing competitions, which can be easily accessed from one place. This act of kindness (or perhaps insanity ~ or blatant self-exposure) is an idea I concocted to save you from trawling the web for hours upon end. Time better spent concentrating on your masterpiece!
If you hear of any good comps that deserve a mention, please post me a line or two with the details and I'll direct fellow writers to the site.
Why stick with competitions? This could be the place to advertise calls for submissions ~ job adverts ~ freelancing opportunities of any description, as long as it’s writing related.
Won a writing competition discussed on this site? Land yourself that 'dream’ writers job or book contract? Want to turn us green with envy? Then let me know so I can share your success, however big or small, with the rest of the world. Who knows, you might see your name in the Hall of Fame!
Perhaps you are a published author with a willingness to encourage others to improve their prose, in exchange to a link to your site? Sigh! Now I know I am dreaming!
To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.
Have you any tips or top articles I can display on this site? I may choose to post a few relevant articles of my own, once I get going.
This blog is young and unbounded, so expect many changes and new additions. Grow with it. Get involved. Help make this a resource to shout about. Any ideas whatsoever will be gratefully received, chewed over and responded to. You don’t have to be published to help me out ~ so what are you waiting for?
Keep watching ~ something special is about to emerge before your very eyes. I should know, I can feel it in my water…
6-month writing competitions for short stories and poetry.
Complete details can be found on the website. Entrants must register before 29th September 2005. The competition starts on October 1st and closes on March 31st 2006.
