Have you always wanted to be a published author but don’t know how to go about it or just can’t seem to get started? Hertfordshire Life has teamed up with Happy London Press, Chorleywood Bookshop, Little Chalfont Community Library and Wycombe Sound 106.6 fm to launch a new short story competition covering Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire and London.
The aim of the Hi 20:20 competition is to find 20 new writers and to publish their unique stories of 1,000-1,500 words in a sumptuous illustrated hardback book. With the increasing competition of authors, it is becoming harder for new writers to get noticed by publishers and agents. The competition offers the chance for 20 talented writers to shine and give them the recognition their talents deserve.
With the current lockdown it could be the ideal time to focus on crafting a story or two.
