Time to win $500!

The deadline is approaching for our HT Young Writer of the Year Award entries. August 31st is the time to have your entries in to win $500, plus a huge amount of prizes!

The subject is ‘I REALISED I WAS LOST…’

You can use these five words to create a story/scene or recount a real-life experience. The word limit is 600 words. Please add name, age, and contact details when submitting your story to editor@hinterlandtimes.com.au

The entry age range is 10- 17 years. Due to the differing age ranges, the overriding criteria is how descriptive and evocative a story is – essentially, how a piece made us feel, rather than the grammar and punctuation.

So start writing - your front cover, published story and prizes await!
