In addition to our major competitions, the mini- competitions are a great way to try out short pieces of work.
The Snow and Ice in Verse competition closed at the end of February and we will be in touch with winners and runners up in the next few weeks.
The theme of the next mini competition is ‘a letter to…’. Send your fictional letter that tells a story of up to 1,000 words. Just £3 to enter – the winner and up to three runners up will be published on the website and the winning ‘letter’ included in our next anthology. You can enter the competition here.
The winners will hear from us within four weeks of the closing date, May 31st 2012.
Meanwhile, congratulations to the winners of the Snow and Ice in verse competition. It was hard work choosing only four finalists and we’ve ended up with six excellent pieces on the website. The two winning pieces are from Christine Considine, ‘Mother’s Last Christmas’ and Gabriel Griffin, ‘Domo to Geneva’. The four excellent runner up pieces are ‘Snowscape’ by Rosalind Hudis ; ‘Snow-blinded’ by Martin Willitts Jr ; ‘High Fidelity’ by David Olsen and Miceál Kearney’s ‘Walking on Water’ .
