She Inspires Online Women's Magazine Inaugural Short Story Competition

She Inspires is delighted to announce the opening of submissions for our 2010 Winter Short Story Competition. This is the inaugural short story competition, with cash prizes and publishing on SheInspires.com.au for the winning authors. She Inspires is looking for talented, vibrant authors to submit their short stories for consideration.

Sydney, Australia, July 08, 2010 --(PR.com)-- “I was inspired by the writing workshops at the Sydney Writers’ Festival’s to launch our first short story competition,” says Belinda Stinson of She Inspires. “Sitting in a room full of passionate writers coming from such a variety of backgrounds with the one common love for writing and reading got me questioning how to help keep the flow of creativity going. I love the enthusiasm our readers have for our online prize pack competitions so hosting a writing competition with a cash prize was such a logical fit."

She Inspires is an online magazine reflecting the varied interests of today's women and celebrating inspiration.

“As women we’re always offering support and encouragement; inspiring others in our daily lives,” explains Belinda. “Given how negative so many women’s magazines often are we decided that a publication that is about offering a well of inspiration for women (and men) to dip into to renew their spirits would be something to celebrate, to enjoy.” She Inspires is named after all women who constantly offer inspiration to their family, friends and colleagues.

So to keep the logic going from the writing workshops the theme for the She Inspires short story competition is ‘inspiration’. It is a broad theme to allow the individual creativity of each writer to tell their own story in their own way, all within 3,000 words. Writers are invited to interpret this theme any way they wish.

She Inspires is calling for writers to send in their submission by Wednesday 14th July 2010. “Competitions have a closing date and it’s amazing how deadlines are so effective for getting the creative thoughts going and the words flowing,” says Belinda. The She Inspires short story competition is a great opportunity for aspiring writers to hone their writing skills and get their work published.
