I sent an email to friend writers and asked if anyone would like to be a guest contributor. I've had a couple of acceptances and one said - perhaps later, just not now. I'll keep asking those I know who are interested in writing fiction (especially for fun) and they will appear from time to time.
Guest Contributor - Una Harding
Una is a prolific writer of poetry and short stories, although I know at the moment she is deeply entrenched in a novel. Here is what she sent me.
Dear writers, I am wondering if you share my frustration with writing
competitions.
Who are these anonymous judges who set themselves up to assess us? And why
don't they do this in light of the criteria they set! And don't they know that
form and content have moved on since the 19the century?
On a happier note, if I can secure a grant I will be curating an exhibition
'Poetic Posters' which will feature local work. Watch this space. But don't
expect too much for a while.
May your muse be with you.
