Local author Alan Cobham is celebrating the release of his new book ‘What’s the Point?’ by inviting Voice readers to get creative.
Alan is encouraging readers to submit short stories and is offering a $200 cash prize to the winner as an incentive.
Alan’s purpose in writing ‘What’s the point?’ was to entice readers to have a go at training your imagination.
Pieces are sourced from recollections of early childhood, working life through to the challenges of later life.
Voice readers can send their short stories, which should be based around a ‘nickname’ theme to newsdesk@voicegroup.com.au.
The winning entry, which will be judged by an independent panel, will be presented with $200 cash at Bookgrove in Ocean Grove early in the New Year.
Stories should be strictly between 200 and 500 words in length and must be centred on a nickname theme.
Cut-off date for entries is 5pm Friday 7 December.
