Happy Days

We have added two more competitions to our writing programme to bring the total to six competitions per year.

All competitions are free-to-enter for our members; but you must be a member to enter.

Join now and enjoy all the other benefits of the club as well.

We continue with our four €100 competitions and publication on this website and on www.askaboutwriting.net.

The two new competitions will be short fun events based on posted pictures on this site for which you only need write 500 words or 40 lines of poetry. The prizes for the short competitions will be writing-related books, and publication.

This means we will have a competition every other month; with the winner announced on the in-between month.

You may need to buy an extra pen to keep up.
