Call for entries: young women
writers competition
Guardian Weekend
magazine is launching a writing competition for UK women aged 16-21 on the
theme of conversations.
How
to enter
All
you have to do is submit a 700-word personal essay that shows off your
talents——on the theme of conversations. Did you have an unforgettable
conversation with your grandmother about her youth that changed how you viewed
her? Do you find having certain conversations really hard, and if so, why? Is
there a conversation you regret, or one you regret you never had? We're keen to
hear about your personal experiences.
All
entries must be sent to weekend@the
guardian. com by midnight on 9 March.
The
Prizes
There
will be one winner and two runners-up. The three winners will each receive £250.
The winners will be notified (通知) by email
or telephone on or before 30 March 2021 and given details of how to claim their
prizes. As part of the editing process, the three winners will participate in a
video call with a Guardian Weekend
editor to discuss and edit their essay for publication. The one overall winner
will also receive a 1-1 work shop with a Guardian editor.
