Thank you all for your entries into the Write On School For Young Writers Nature Writing competition for Issue 59. We loved the variety of the entries and all of the different ways you engaged us with the natural world. We read about special places, bugs, bees, birds, mushrooms, maggots and so much more.
Congratulations to those of you that won or were Highly Commended. For those of you who weren't successful this time, please remember that no writing is ever wasted. Something in your entry may form the basis for something new in the future. All writers can take inspiration from their past work. We look forward to hearing from you again, either with a competition entry or a piece for inclusion in the magazine.
