Competitions
(we've got prizes and everything...)
Yep, it's true, we've managed to blag some swag and we're willing to give it to you...well when we say give....
The Danny King Comp
What we want is a short story of about a thousand words on modern British life - (that's only two sides of A4 for god's sake!) and in return, if it's good enough, we'll send you a shiny new copy of 'School for Scumbags' by the illustrious Danny King.
This competition is now over - Keep an eye out for the next one.
These prizes were donated to us by the kind and lovely folk at
Serpents Tail Independent Publishers and they would like us to mention they have many other DK titles in stock (as well as some other fine authors - keep an eye on the interviews page over the coming weeks) and they do
FREE POSTAGE AND PACKING which is frankly a quality service in our humble opinion.
Now, as with all comps there is one golden rule :- The judge's (that's us) decision is final and no correspondence regarding winners and losers will be entered into - got that? Good.
So, if you want to have a go (and why wouldn't you?) send your entry to
radgepacketsubs@bykerbooks.co.uk in our usual format (story in body of email NOT attachment).
If you'd like to have a go but think that writing is something done by clever people that went to university or something then you're exactly the kind of person we want.
If you work in a crap job, live on a rubbish estate and have to deal with weirdos on a regular basis then why don't you jot it down and see what it comes out like?
Come on, get it in to us and we'll make you famous!!!
***Deadline for Entries is 8th August ***
