Writing Competitions

Just received this from the lady who runs our local writing group. I was a member once, but I stopped going as it was held in the library and the loo was always locked, and as the meetings lasted 2 hours and the journey there and back was at least half an hour each way... well, 'nuff said!
..........

please see below some links for 2 upcoming writing competitions - some great prizes at stake.

Firstly there is the Brit Awards Writer of the year for a novel - £10,000 prize plus the chance for all work considered commercially viable by the competition readers to be passed on to agents and publishing professionals:

Dear Writers, Publishers and Friends,

National & International Submissions Deadline - March 30th 2012 Unpublished, Self Published (£10,000 prize) and a Published Writer category.
