Chairman's Challenges

Each month the Chairman sets a small challenge for members to tackle for the following month. Most of us find this to be an excellent motivational exercise. Entries can be in the form of prose or poetry. Below are the details of the most recent challenges. Each year all the entries are published in the Wrekin Writers Anthology. So come on members get scribbling and you are guaranteed to become a published writer!

Writing a Challenge in FIVE easy steps
 
1. To stand a chance of winning you need to keep within an absolute maximum of 100 words (not counting the title).

2. Come up with a cunning idea!
3. Write it - DO NOT PUT YOUR NAME ON IT.
4. Print out a copy to bring to the meeting to read out, ensuring it has a title.
