Am I Doing This Write?

Are you a budding young - or not so young writer? If you're like me and like to write but don't really know what about - or have the stamina to finish a piece, then competitions are a great way to force yourself (if you will) to write! Hmm, maybe motivate is a better word... 

The Australian Writers' Center is a great place to begin and is a hub of activity and knowledge relating to writing of course.

For younger authors is the Rosie Respect Creators Awards which is a great resource that supports  young women as well as provides a discussion space for issues present today with gender equality. That one does close on the 20 of this month so get cracking if you haven't already!

Your local library may also put on a number of creative competitions too! The Whittlesea branch of the Yarra Plenty Regional Library is having a Whittlesea Writers' Festival on May 30 which would be great to go to to get a lot of exposure to other works and tips. The YPRL network also run an annual short story competition so keep an eye out for that!


Hahaha found this online and too funny not to post...
