Author of the Week…

This could be your space…

Send me your short story for a chance to be published here. brendashort@writingblog.ca

Or…

Do you have a novel you’re working on? Would you like to share a chapter or two for feedback? Send me up to 2,500 words, or an outline of your story, characters, etc. I will also print any comments that I receive.

E.g. “I’m working on a story about two siblings in Africa who are orphaned through Aids, or Covid. That point is tbd, but they live on in their dilapidated hut, scrambling for food and miles from a water supply. An older brother has already been taken by the rebels to become a child soldier. This story would be about their own war – the struggle for survival. What do you think? Should this be written in first person, from the point of view of the oldest? youngest? or written in the third person?”

This is just an example of what you might send, but if anyone wants to use this particular idea, I’m happy to pass it along…Brenda S.
