#write cbc competition

2/8/2020

0 Comments

 
This week I saw a Twitter based writing competition from CBC - Curtis Brown Creative.  This is a creative writing school led by Curtis Brown Literary Agency.  The task was to start with the line 'It happened on 29th February...' and write a mini-scene that created intrigue.  I decided to enter as I thought it would be interesting to see what on earth I could come up that would create intrigue in the limited number of characters allowed in a Tweet.       
It was difficult!  It's surprising how writing with limited words is so much more difficult that without a word limit!  It's a great task as it really forces you to choose words carefully, while still thinking about the effect you want to create.  I couldn't believe it when I discovered that my entry had been chosen as the winner, and my prize is a place on one of Curtis Brown's writing courses.
