The Group Grows Some More!

Hello readers,
This group, Adelaide Plains Chapter and Verse is growing, both in the number of members, and in terms of people who're connecting with us. Our short story competition, 'Fairy Tales Twisted Sideways' is attracting a lot of interest, from writers interstate.

As the months go on, the word will travel across Australia, and I expect the entries from all states will arrive in my letterbox. After being involved in an annual Poetry competition over the past 7 or so years, it's been interesting to see how much interest has been shown in this short story competition.

I'm not sure whether it's because more people like short stories rather than poetry, or whether it's the theme of twisted fairy tales that attracts the interest. I just know that this twisted fairy tale competition is exciting lots of tale tellers, with entries rolling in already, with months still to go until the closing date (30 June).

So, if you live in Australia, and you like twisted tales, why not have a go at twisting your favourite fairy tale! The best entries will be published in a book (free copy to all who get in the list of the best ones). There are also first, second and third prizes, with a good sized prize pool...

I look forward to receiving your competition entries!
