Can you write a story about Suffolk?
Do you have memories of the old days? Or have you recently moved here? Could you write a fictional account of life, set in this eastern county of England? Village life, seaside life, life in the town, life on the farm – in Suffolk we have many different settings that could inspire you to write a prize-winning story.
The Bury writers’ group Write Now! is launching a short story competition this September on the theme of ‘Suffolk’. The story must be no longer than 2,000 words and there is prize money totalling over £200 for the three best stories submitted, and for three runners up.
The closing date is December 31st 2006. Winners will be announced in Spring 2007 and will be invited to receive their awards at a special prize-giving ceremony. Full details are on the entry forms that are available as a download from www.writenow.wickerswork.co.uk
