Literature
New for 2011, The London Culture Festival short story competition launched on Tuesday 3rd May. The competition aims to promote aspiring writers in London and provide them with a voice.
Our theme this year is ‘THE CITY THROUGH MY EYES‘ so we’d love to hear your cultural stories about the city as you see it. Open to Londoners of all ages, from every culture. We are accepting stories in any genre such as romance, thriller, humour, fantasy, history, mystery or adventure. It’s entirely up to you.
