And competitions are a really good way to stay motivated. You can also find some on the BBC Writers Room website - they are often looking for god young writers.<br /><br />I used to enter the Bridport Prize, many years ago, but got disappointed when I didn't win (the same reason I have stopped doing the lottery). I would enter again, but only if I had written something I was really, really proud of... The Rethink Your Mind comp attracted me because there is no entry fee, and because I imagine there will be less entrants than for the Bridport. The closing date is the end of January - mark it on your calendar, I find it is all too easy to let these dates slip by.

I'll hopefully enter it too! I'm also entering the Bridport prize too, if you're not already registered with them it'll be worth a look into them too as the top prize is £5000 and several winners and runners up end on having their work published! Googling Bridport Prize should find them but I'll leave another comment with their website for your information.<br /><br />Good luck!!Katynoreply@blogger.com
