My ‘Writers Bureau’ in-box is full this week, with many students looking to send in assignments before the Christmas break. After all, it’s December Sunday so not long to go! I’m also doing the same as my students and submitting articles and short stories before the end of year deadlines so all in all, a busy week. I hope your week is going well.

My market for you this week is: ‘Writers Bureau Annual Competitions’:

‘The Writers Bureau’ run two annual competitions – one for short stories and the other for poems. The competitions run separately with the short story competition opening from the beginning of the year i.e. January 1^st and closing on the 30^th June. The poetry competition is then open from the latter date until the 31^st December.

The total prize fund for each competition totals over £1000 so they’re competitions worth entering. Further information can be found on the competition page of their website:
