March Quick Tip: Submitting To Writing Competitions

Whether you want practice, exposure, or some extra cash in your pocket, writing competitions offer fantastic opportunities for writers. Unfortunately, many writers don't get past the first round of judging because of some very simple oversights - and not all of them have to do with the quality of the writing itself. This workshop will run through the many do's and don'ts when submitting to writing competitions, so that you can start getting shortlisted.

Held on the 3rd of March 2020.
