MiniWords Competition
Welcome to miniWORDS 2008, our big writing competition with a small word count!
Closing Date: Saturday 31st may 2008.
There are three categories in this year’s competition:
miniSTORIES - a narrative in prose or verse in 50 words or less.
miniVERSE - any verse form you choose so long as the word count is between 25 and 75 words.
HAIKU - any form of haiku from traditional to contemporary western forms including the ‘zip’.
Each category carries a £250 first prize winner. Second and third place, commended and highly commended will also be awarded in each category (although there will be no prize for this). You may enter each category up to three times each.
On these pages you should be able to find all the information you need to submit your entry. If you have any queries please read through the FAQ page to see if we have answered your question there. If not then you are welcome to contact Catherine Gillam at miniwords2008@charnwood-arts.org.uk
