12words

I have just seen the coolest site! It’s called 12words and can be found at http://12words.com.au

If you are aged 15 – 25 and live in Australia, you could win a writing mentorship or a laptop, simply by writing 12 words! How cool is that! Now’s your chance! You might think that writing a novel is hard…sometimes writing something concisely is just as difficult!

Ernest Hemingway once wrote: “For sale; Baby shoes; Never used.” Those six words put together conjure up vivid scenarios. What can you say in 12 words? If you think you’d like to improve your writing, this is your chance! Try your luck! Mrs O.
