Well that's just 1st prize. There's a 2nd, 3rd and five runners up prizes too.
Well the wonderful author Rowan Coleman is having a Short Story Competition to celebrate the release of her latest novel THE HAPPY HOME FOR BROKEN HEARTS (on August 19th 2010).
If you have dreams of being published and you can display your talent in approximately 1000 words under the banner of "Starting Over", then this might just be the break you've been waiting for. The prizes for this competition are OUT OF THIS WORLD! It's open to residents of the UK and Ireland who have not had a novel or short story collection published and/or do not have a publishing contract.
This is is the most amazing opportunity for aspiring writers! Don't stop! - hotfoot it straight over to Rowan's blog and devour it. Who knows it could just be your shot.

Awesome! I hope you're entering!!
Sarah - might do. Might just be working on something right now!
That is incredible!!
That looks amazing! I'm pretty sure it's more than I can manage but I hope you win something.
Barrie and Fairyhedgehog - it's an amazing offer. Rowan is in talks with her US publisher to see if she can get a similar competition going for the US. Wonderfully generous, don't you think?
Can temporary stranded residents apply...
Whoa. That's a helluva first prize!
McK - I think the fact that you've got to get to all the meetings in London under your own steam does probably put those who normally reside in the Antipodes out of the running, but if you do find yourself here till after August 19th, I don't see why not. As long as you're not published by then....
Jason - it certainly is! Rowan got her first break by entering a writing competition and she wants to give that chance to someone else. Which is pretty cool!
Earthling...
Q: what's the MOST important objective
N our lifelong demise determined by us?
A: achieving Seventh-Heaven: in the
Great Beyond, everythang is possible.
When our eternal soul leaves our body at death
and we riseabove to meet our Maker,
only four, last things remain:
death, judgement, Heaven or Hell
according to the deeds WEE mortals
have done in our Finite Existence.
Find-out what RCIA means and join.
