Monthly #WriteCBC Writing Competition
Deadline: Fri 6 Mar 2020
Curtis Brown Creative runs a monthly writing competition on Twitter on the first Thursday of every month. Join in for the chance to win a free place on one of our six-week online writing courses.

Here’s how to play …

On the first Thursday of every month (next competition: Thursday 5 March 2020) we post one writing tip and one writing task on Twitter and in our CBC blog. The tip is a delicate pearl of wisdom to help you in your novel-writing. The task requires you to do a nifty bit of writing in under 280 characters. 

The tip and task are tweeted at 11 am (UK-time) – and are also posted in our blog, where you can get some extra writing advice to help you with the task.

To take part – just have a go at the day’s task, and post the results up on Twitter – tagging @cbcreative, and including the hashtag #WriteCBC

The competition closes at 10 am (UK-time) the next morning – Friday. We choose a winner and two runners-up, and tweet and post the results in our blog at 11 am (UK-time). The winner gets a free place on one of our 6-week online courses for all-comers (worth £200). The two runners-up get a £50 discount off the price of one of the 6-week online courses. 

Only one entry per person per month, please. Over-18s only.
