Oh wow! That's so lovely to hear. I'd forgotten about that coffee and cake prize but I remember now. I also now remember the two girls who won in the kids category coming in for their prize - a hot chocolate and cake in their case!
Festive flash? Go for it and send your 350 words to @failingwriters so that Emily (who is teaching again for us in February btw) can consider it for the cash prize! #FlashFiction #Writers #WritingCourses #WritingCommunity
Win yourself £500 with a 350-word festive flash! The fine folk at @failingwriters have asked me to judge this year's competition. Listen to the episode to hear what I'm looking for, and the *special phrase* you need to include... 👀 👇

Thanks so much! We just finished our last session and *I* will miss it. What a wonderful group. I was sorry to press 'end meeting'. I also have a feeling there's going to be some amazing flash emerging from those talented writers...
