2009 Competitions
One of the most exciting moments
of the Winchester Writers' Conference is the posting of the short
lists of winners and highly commended entrants to the sixteen
writing competitions. Here, those who have submitted their entries
to the sixteen writing competitions can recognise their amusing,
sometimes frivolous pseudonyms under which the competitions are
judged and prepare for the Writers' Awards Reception when the
real names of the winners and highly commended writers are announced
by the judges and the sponsors of these competitions award their
prizes and trophies.
Entering these competitions is an excellent way to test the market
with your creative ideas. Although not every entrant can be a
winner, every entrant receives a critique that will help that
author to further develop their work toward their personal best
as well as for publication. Reading some of the adjudications
that precede the specific awards will give you the flavour of
this Writers' Awards Reception. Maybe you will enter next year,
even if you are not able to join us.
