Writing Competitions: November 2011

Winning writing competitions can really boost a writer's confidence. But it's not just winning, merely entering writing competitions give writers a reason to write every day and keep the creative buzz going. A Blogger's Books brings you monthly (ish) updates on real, paid writing opportunities. We even cater for those who're not really writers, but have a talent for writing verses or greeting cards. All those writing jobs can be found on the writing jobs' page.

Now, I just wanted to give you the heads up about a few writing competitions you can enter in November 2011. Hang in there and keep writing every day!
