Hi everyone,
We’re thrilled to announce the next leg of our bi-annual short story competition! Samantha has sadly had to take a step back from running the competition, but we’re still keen to include Writer’s Island members!
Our goal has always been to give readers more of a say on the kinds of content we provide. Shortlisted entries will be uploaded onto our site, and YOU will get to choose the winner! We’re switching things up a bit this time – the top 3 most voted stories will be included in our anthology.
To enter and/or vote, you need to be a member of our Rogue Reader group. If you haven’t joined already, you should! We’re a community of writers and readers. We run activities, share stories and give feedback.
