How nice of you! Now I hope all the budding and seasoned writers who keep asking for critiques will take this golden opportunity. I'm not into short stories but for some extra quid   I could jog myself into writing one. Will have to tweak my friends/family for ideas, though, cos for now, hmmmn. . . writer's block . |

You have?? Wow. What was the theme of your short story? I just want to have an idea of what you wrote about. I'm only curious. |

You're all welcome folks. I'm still working on a story to send. I hope we all win. |

Maximum is 600 words? How can that be? |
| Re: Commonwealth Short Story Competition by slap1(m): 6:52am On Feb 24, 2010 |
That has been the rules, no application of lip gloss, lip stick, mascara, etc. Straight to the point! Respect the Word. |

^^ May it go with God's air of grace. Will be sending mine later. |
| Re: Commonwealth Short Story Competition by slap1(m): 11:32am On Mar 31, 2010 |
just sent my own entry now! |

^^^Yeah, I too sent my own last-minute. Had the story in my head for weeks, never thought I could finish it or make it work. But by midnight on 30th March, something just told me to sit down with the lappy and fix the story. I edited and re-edited to get it to fit into 600, but in the end I think I'm happy with the result. Wish you all the best everyone! |
