The Second Great Salient Short Story Competition
Ever wanted to get into some creative writing but never quite had the inclination? Salient's short story competition offers you the chance to win:
A first Prize of $50 A Second Prize of $25 Worth of Books, Courtesy Victoria Book Centre
Whether you've already won half a dozen Pultizer Prizes, or whether you're still learning how to hold a pen, your short story can whisk you along the road to real fame and fortune.
The short stories will be judged by this year's VUW Writing Fellow, Vincent O'Sullivan. He will accept up to 3,000 words on the topic of your choice.
Closing Date for Entries: Friday 17 July.
The winners will be announced, and published in Salient, a couple of weeks after this date. In fact most of the stories stand an excellent chance of being printed during the third term.
So, if you fancy your talents as a writer, here's your chance to prove it.
- 3,000 words or less.
- Typed (we have typewriters if you don't),
- Previously unpublished (and able to be printed in Salient).
- Any topic under the sun.
- Open to anyone who's a student at Victoria in 1981.
- Bring in your story to Salient anytime up to July 17. Or, if you need further information, contact Stephen A'Court in Salient. One and all will be most obliged.
