So this time last year I was buzzing because I made it onto the BBC Blast website for my "The Honour Of Dying Is No Honour At All" piece of writing. I submitted that, and the first part of my book to another talent scout called Noise Festival (www.noisefestival.com) and have been waiting in agony till now when the shortlisting would end.
And guess what...
I MADE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, I was so glad. The relief that I felt was immense, I didn't even think I was this worried about it, but this is one of the biggest talent scouts in the UK since....well ever I think, and it's my biggest chance yet to be seen. The piece that got accepted wasn't the one I thought, which was accepted to BBC Blast, it was the first part to my novel (the final re-write of that part) and now I gotta promote my link and gather votes - so please excuse me while I do so!

Some damned good writers (and I'm not meaning myself).
To vote, click on the picture of the two hands, not the "how to get me on the front page" cos that link does nothing I think. Also, please don't vote for me just because you know me, only vote for me if you think my work is good and deserves to win, because otherwise I don't learn anything from this.
Thank you all!!!!!!!

PS - 6 days till my 18th bday :D
