Exciting news from Gondor Writers’ centre:
Some workshop participants have asked if the presenters would do a quick assessment of their 'work-in-progress'. Unfortunately, there is not time for all attendees to be given this privilege, but we have come up with a way around this.
From July 1st all workshops will include an opportunity for 4 lucky winners to have their manuscript assessed by our exciting presenters and one to win a FREE workshop!
CONDITIONS: The manuscript must be in the genre of the workshop being presented. Below are a list of July’s workshops and presenters, with guidelines for the competition for each. See the Gondor website for more information. The first place winner will get a FREE workshop and a 15 minute consultation and assessment.
