I was wondering if there would be another comp - when I was young there used to be a national Young Writers competition and it was very exciting- I wish they'd run another one, because it covered all kinds of writing and the winning entries were so interesting to read (at least, I thought so - they used to be published in a book).Jenny Woolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16881781466502273314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-49590704847754739772012-01-30T15:56:57.516+00:002012-01-30T15:56:57.516+00:00Me too, Suz ;-) Yes indeed, where did that year go...Me too, Suz ;-) Yes indeed, where did that year go? xxTeresa Ashbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350697922935549188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-55597308855143799352012-01-30T01:02:19.735+00:002012-01-30T01:02:19.735+00:00I listened to this last year - driving between the...I listened to this last year - driving between the school drop-off and work. I know it was aimed at children, but the interviews with writers and advice offered were all very interesting. Almost made me wish I was wee again so I could enter.<br /><br />Although I'm alarmed to learn from your post it was a year ago.

I was about 14 when I entered a writing competition run by Bill Collins (movie critic). It was called, 'The Challenge to Lassie Competition'. I still have the book I won with Bill Collins' kind comment and autograph. That was such a nice feeling!
