THERE is perhaps nothing quite so powerful as a well told story, and few joys greater for writer than reaching its last punctuation mark.
Celebrating the creativity of young, burgeoning writers, the Furphy Literary Awards is currently open and accepting manuscripts for Junior Short Story and Junior Poetry writers aged 12 and under, and Youth Short Story and Youth Poetry writers aged 13 to 17. But young authors must hurry, because the Awards will close this Saturday, May 31 at 11.59 pm.
With winners in each category to receive cash prizes of $300 for first place, $100 for second and $50 for third place, why not experience the joy of writing, setting down a tale uniquely your own for the world to share.
