Dear all

My name is Darren Reid - i just posted in the introduction bit of the forum so if you want to read about me, it is posted there. Anyways, I myself am something of an aspiring (and struggling) Fantasy and Science Fiction writer. As well my first book, I am also working on a compilation of short stories. I am currently running a very short story contest (i noticed you folks have done something similar here, i am just new but i guess great minds do think alike - or fools seldome differ, hehe) where aspiring writers can writer 500 word stories based on an already created fantasy world. If anyone is interested, go to the website at the bottom of this email as it contains details ofthe fantasy world for which you will be writing (it is a tolkien-esque high fantasy concept). The top three entries will be included in an upcoming anthology collection due to be published later this year.

Hope everyone is good and if you've any questions just reply to this thread
