Pens Ready!
In association with the South Coast Writers Centre, the River of Art Festival is hosting a Flash Fiction Competition, with winners to be announced in early October.
The competition winner will receive $500 and runner ups will receive book vouchers.
Shortlisted entrants will be invited to read their work at a literary event during the River of Art Festival when the winners will be announced. The SCWC will also be running a writing workshop (date to be advised).
Eurobodalla means ‘land of many waters’. Writers are encouraged to include the theme or words ‘many waters’ in their work in some way, and to interpret the theme in a broad and creative way.
