I've been focusing on submitting stories to the women's magazines in the last couple of months, as well as returning to do Write Invite every Saturday. I'm pleased to report that I've had two stories accepted by Woman's Weekly and I've been a runner-up, but not yet a winner, a few times in the Write Invite Competition. I haven't been entering as many short story competitions as last year, but still like to enter my favourite ones like Word Hut and Multi Story.
Issue 9 of The Yellow Room should be published this summer. It was put on hold while I gave my office a good de-cluttering. I've also been busy with my son's 18th birthday celebrations (his birthday was on 13th May). I can't believe he's now officially an adult. He's now in the throes of A2 exams.
Anyway, without further a do, here is the longlist for latest Yellow Room Competition. I hope to announce the shortlist and the winners in the next few days.
