In the Write Light

(I don't know about you but I'm getting a little tired with 'Write' puns...)

Anyway, a lovely sounding competition this if you want to win the prize - a workshop and (I think) flights and accommodation in Tarifa, Andalucia.

This summer, In The Write Light has teamed up with the Sunday Independent and Aer Lingus to offer writers the chance to participate in a great competition which sees the winner win a place on our September workshop with Nell McCafferty.

What: a short story either fiction or non-fiction, no more than 2,200 words.

Deadline: August 13th 2010.

Send entries: 2 copies of short story to Books Editor, Sunday Independent, 27 - 32 Talbot St. Dublin 1.

The workshops sound great.

Your workshop begins with a deep tissue full body massage. Cleansing your body of toxins and releasing stress, this is the first step towards igniting your WRITE LIGHT!

To ensure you're totally inspired, you'll also enjoy 16 hours of tuition with a published author plus lazy lunches on the beach, leisurely walks along stunning coastline, dinners of fresh fish and tasty tapas and lively chats long into the night.
