peripheria

In November when I failed to get anywhere, yet again, in a writing competition (Mslexia) I thought that was sign enough to give them up. I had lost time and money and confidence over competitions. I had written short stories especially for the competitions. The time I spent writing short stories was time I did not spend writing a novel.

But about ten days ago (14th January), someone working for Myriad Editions pointed out this competition. The closing date is 1st February;  I thought it was 5th until I checked a few minutes ago (postal entries only). I am sorry not to give more notice of it.

The entry fee is only £5.00. I hope to enter my children’s novel.
