The Golden Pen Awards

The deadline for the above is fast approaching and I meant to give it a mention sooner but here goes. This competition has proved successful for more than a few local writers so why not send a poem or two or even a short story. The closing date is the 30th of April and that leaves only a few days to get your entry in! The first prize is €100 for adults and €50 for students. Prizes for 2nd and 3rd places as well with publication in the Festival Magazine. No entry form required and open theme. Stories limited to 2000 words and poems to 70 lines with your name and details on a separate. Send: to: The Golden Pen Awards
