My first writing contest: honourable mention

Yesterday was full of lovely surprises owing to the fact that I spent the morning at the beach and had supper with friends at a pub. At midday I heard that my first writing contest entry merited an honourable mention, which was particularly gratifying since my creative non-fiction piece centered on women in film. The Royal City Literary Arts Society (RCLAS) will publish my short story later this year.

While walking along the beach a woman told me about this pretty sea star (picture by my husband), so small I may have missed it if she hadn't brought it to my attention. People are so friendly here--I'm really enjoying island life. 

Stay tuned. I have more articles about the treatment/portrayals of women and girls in film/TV coming soon.
