Tiny Weeny Writing and Drawing Competition

Back by popular demand, the tiniest of Leaf Books' competitions. They invite you to send EITHER writing that is no longer than 140 characters, which includes letters, spaces and punctuation, (not the title but please don’t make those more than 30 characters) OR a piece of black and white art no bigger than half a post card. Obviously you can send both, but as separate entries.

You can use any form - a petit poem, a short short short story, a playlet, your best ever tweet, anything you like. For the drawings please can we have black and white and if you send them online as a jpeg or a gif.

Prizes: The best of the pieces will be published in the Leaf Writers’ Magazine and the very best single piece will win £75.00 and a free years subscription to the Magazine.

Last time the winners went up on the Showcase site – have a look at these great entries for ideas and inspiration.
