After a bank holiday at the beginning of the week, I keep having to remind myself which day of the week it is. It really feels like a Tuesday but as it’s already Wednesday, my deadlines are looming even closer.
Though, school starts back next week so I should be able to catch up quite quickly. I have to admit I’ve rather enjoyed baking chocolate chip cookies and crafting animal-themed headbands out of pipe cleaners and felt, but blink and it’ll be half-term!
My market for you this week is a quarterly flash fiction competition inviting stories of up to 500 words. Flash fiction is great fun to write and as it’s short – most competitions range from between 50 – 500 words, it fits in with other writing projects. ‘Flash 500’ has been going for four years and offers good prize money, with £300 awarded to the winning entry.
If you take a look at the website, you’ll see that there are some other exciting competitions to enter:
