NEW COMPETITION

for Issue 55: What Year is It? 

​

It’s barely halfway through, and we’ve had enough of 2020 already!

So your challenge is to write a story of up to 400 words set in ANY OTHER YEAR, could be 2019, 5 B.C, or 3020! The trick will be to land us right in the middle of the most important part of the story - don’t use up all your words on the time travel aspect - we want to read about being there NOT getting there!

DEADLINE: Friday 23rd OCT 2020

​

YEARS 4-6 Two winners will receive a

$20 Scorpio Books voucher

​

YEARS 7-8 Two winners will receive a

$30 Scorpio Books voucher

​

YEARS 9-10 Two winners will receive a

$50 Scorpio Books voucher
