RESULTS OF THE OPEN WRITING COMPETITION 2009
THE WRITE PLACE CREATIVE WRITING SCHOOL
Open Short Story and Poetry competition 2009
Despite the effects of the postal dispute, we had an excellent entry for our first writing competition.
The standard of entry was generally very high and the judges were astonished at the diverse and innovative interpretations of the competition themes, with some writers being quite inventive.
Unfortunately, in a few instances, the presentation of the end product let the author down.
The winning stories and poetry were selected for their flair, creativity and imaginative construction. The authors should be applauded for their hard work.
