Congratulations to Jane Allsop from Lancashire, winner of our Anecdote competition with her entry 'Tern Off'.
 Jane has won a free entry to our Open Short Story Competition, online publication and Maggie's book (see below) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Easy-Money-For-Writers-Wannabes/dp/1500371173

Read Jane's winning entry here http://erewashwriterscompetition.weebly.com/winner-2015-anecdote-competition-with-maggie-cobbett.html

Our judge, Maggie Cobbett, comments:

'Tern Off' is both cleverly written and very funny.  I've thoroughly enjoyed reading all the entries. An entry by Deborah Jones of Devon was hilarious. Please congratulate all your members for me on a fine effort.

I'll be at the Writers' Summer School (Swanwick) as usual in August and hope to meet some of your members there.


Our thanks to Maggie for judging our competition.
