WRITERS of all ages can put pen to paper and enter their work in a Sefton competition.
The annual Sefton Writing Competition - now in its 17th year - welcomes people of all ages to submit their work, from poems and stories to essays and mini dramas.
This year’s theme for the competition is ‘culture’, to celebrate 2008 as Liverpool’s year as Capital of Culture, and entries are welcome from across the UK.
The competition will form part of the second Sefton Celebrates Writing Festival - running from September 22-28 - with the winners being announced at Southport Arts Centre on the closing day of the festival.
Prizes total £1,000 and include cash prizes and book tokens. The closing date for entries is September 19.
The entry fee is £2 per poem or story, and children, aged 14 years and under, can enter free of charge. Entry forms are available from libraries, arts centres and community centres throughout Sefton and from similar outlets around Merseyside in general.
For further information, contact Netherton Arts Centre on 0151 525 0417 or email stephanie.dunne@leisure.sefton.gov.uk
