Competition for writers

SHELDRAKE PRESS

Writers wanted! Are you a bright graduate or final-year student looking for an opportunity to have your work published for the first time and get some experience working with a London- based publishing company? We are running a competition to find the best short poem in the style of a Ruthless Rhyme, a humorous verse from invented by Harry Graham. The winner will have their poem published in our soon-to-be-launched blog and will then be invited to write further Ruthless Rhymes on seasonal themes throughout 2012. In addition, the winner and any runners-up will be favourably considered for a six-month internship at Sheldrake Press, to start in 2012. For examples of Harry Graham’s work and for full details of the competition, please go to our web-site, www.sheldrakepress.co.uk and follow the link on our home page.  Entries must be received by Sunday 4th March 2012, sent to press@sheldrakepress.co.uk with your name, contact details and the subject heading Ruthless Rhyme Competition.
