Delighted to be told that I've evidently won the December txtlit competition (see link to their website on my reading and writing blog). Had to write a tiny story with beginning, middle and end in only 160 characters, including the word Story, with the theme of 'snow'. Great fun and quite a challenge - now there's an instance where no word should be wasted!
On the same day, I found out I'd won the writing group One Act Play competition, with my first attempt at writing one. Not many entries but the adjudicator, Joyce, said she may be able to put it on with her AmDram group, if I add another 5 minutes to it. What a buzz and encouragement.
Have received 55 stories for the SAW adjudication (first weekend in March). Wow - a lot of reading, and writing of critiques! And I've still to receive stories from another group to be adjudicated during February. It really is a privilege though. I'm enjoying the stories I've read so far, which makes it a pleasure, but more difficult to choose at the same time. Long way to go with the reading yet, and then I'll read the best ones again. Also doing a seminar at the SAW, so have to prepare for that, and the adjudication presentation. What an excuse for reading lots of stories.
Finally finished the husband's travel website and it's now live, but it will be updated regularly. Guess I'm now his P/T admin assistant and webmaster!
On with the show,
Rosemary
