Writers' Groups
Deddington Writers' Group (limited membership). Members meet once monthly to review constructively each other's work, discuss news of markets, etc. This is no mutual admiration society! Contact: Kristin Thompson 01869 337052 or email: kristin.a@zen.co.uk
Following the success of previous competitions (see page 10 of this edition of the DN), Deddington Writers Group continues to run a Writing Competition in association with Deddington Festival, with larger prizes and well-known authors who have agreed to be the judges.
The competition is in two sections:
- The Open Competition - two categories for short story and for poetry.
- The Junior Competition - sections for three age-groups each inviting a story or a poem on a chosen theme.
Closing date: Contact hughm34@btinernet.com.
