This one has been around for years and is free to enter.
Now in it’s 16th year, Waterford County Council’s Arts Office is pleased to announce that it is currently accepting entries for the national Molly Keane Creative Writing Award.
The late writer lived, until her death in 1996, in Ardmore, Co. Waterford. Her first ten novels and four plays were published under the pseudonym M.J. Farrell. In 1981 ‘Good Behaviour’ became a publishing sensation for which she was short listed for the prestigious Booker Prize.
To celebrate this rich literary life, the County Waterford Arts Office, by kind permission of the Keane family, is inviting entries for a previously unpublished short story to a maximum of 2000 words.
There is no entry fee, no age limit and no restriction on the subject matter.
A prize of €500 will be awarded to the winner at a special ceremony during the IMMRAMA Literary Festival in Lismore, Co. Waterford in June 2013.
Deadline: 4pm on Thursday 21st March 2013.
