I can’t believe that writers still end a story with ‘it was all a dream.’ I guess we’re all on a big learning curve, though.
Thanks for all the advice, Esther. I’ve only ever won one writing competition and didn’t think it was a big deal, but you’ve convinced me otherwise. Maybe it’s time for me to enter more of these competitions and look at submiting some to magazines too?

In answer to your question, Sacha – of course I do, although I’m more of a flash fiction writer. Despite being asked to write a novel, I don’t think I could do it. I suppose it’s all to do with one of my writing heroes – Rod Serling, who wrote many of the episodes of ‘The Twilight Zone’ At only between 20 and 25 minutes long, each episode was a short story with a brilliant twist. Maybe what and how we write has a connection with who our writing heroes are? What do you think?

Well done Sacha and Esther. You managed to cram a lot into your time together and I got a lot out of listening. I’ll definitely sign up to Readly, if only for the free trial period.
One question that is always on my mind when it comes to writing competitions remains unanswered. Esther is probably better placed than most to give the best advice on this but I would welcome answers from all of your followers.
None of us have unlimited funds. Many competitions demand entry fees, How should we go about choosing those competitions which might be worth the fee?

Most welcome, it was an honor
