Writers are invited to submit the opening paragraph of a book for
children from 9 to 14 years. The opening should immediately hook the reader’s
attention and make him/her want to keep on reading. This means no backstory but
language which is fresh, rich and original. Please give your story a title. Two
prizes will be given, each of $50, for the openings which most pique the
judges’ interest. Please mark your subject matter ‘Opening Paragraph’ and send
your entry by noon, Tuesday 10 July to dibates@outlook. All entries will be
acknowledged, and the two winners will be announced in 15 July issue of Buzz Words.
If you would like to enter this and other writing and/or
illustrating competitions, you need to be a Buzz Words’ subscriber. Cost is $48
for 24 issues pa. Write to dibates@outlook.com
to get an obligation free issue
