Bumpkinton Competition
I am currently running a Bumpkinton competition on my website, www.matthewdrzymala.com
All you need to do to enter is email me at mdrzymalaauthor@hotmail.co.uk and do the following:
Create a new/or re-use a character already used in my Bumpkinton stories and write a small piece on a scene you'd like them to be involved in. That's it!
You don't have to have read my stories to enter, it could just be the name of a character burning some bread and having the whole village evacuated. However, the more imaginative, the better.
I will do the rest, I'll write and insert the scene into a short story. Your idea will feature in the next Bumpkinton collection that will be released in paperback hopefully around summer time.
The next Bumpkinton novella is at the beta reader stage and this story will be released, with two bonus short stories in paperback.
The winner will receive a signed copy of the book, an acknowledgement at the back of the book as well as a few other goodies that I will be having made, including something like bookmarks etc.
The closing date is 31st March 2014, so be quick for your chance to win :)

Starting my own writing group set my mind free
I always wanted to join a writing group, but was far too nervous to make the leap.
Many seemed rather strict and others unwelcoming unless you write in perfect prose.
All in all it was a little bit disappointing.
However, one day my friend, Anna, told me to start my own with my rules.
It seemed ridiculous, but I did it.
That was September 2015, and its still going strong today!
Read more about it on my website, and if you're local and a writer, why not join us?
