Short Story Competition

Do you fancy yourself as a short story writer? Then think about the BBC National Short Story Award. As it says on the BBC R4 website:
"...(the) Award celebrates the best of the contemporary British short story. Now in its fourth year, the Award continues to raise the profile of the short story. The inaugural award went to James Lasdun for his short story An Anxious Man; in 2007 it was awarded to Julian Gough for his comic tale The Orphan and the Mob; and in 2008 the winner was Clare Wigfall for Numbers which appeared in her debut collection The Loudest Sound and Nothing published by Faber.
