Redwood Writers: Heartbeat Heartbreak Contest

Redwood Writers Invites All CWC Members to Submit to the

What’s the Story in Your Heart?

Are you ready to unleash the magic of your heart? Whether it’s a tale of first love that made your heart skip a beat, a love-at-first-sight moment that swept you off your feet, or a humorous yet heartbreaking saga that had you saying, “Oh, my heart!”—we want to hear all about it!

Dive into your memories and spin a story, fact or fiction, that captures your heart-centered experiences in up to 1500 words. Remember, only one story per writer, so make it count and let us laugh, cry, or both!

We are looking for fresh work. Unpublished stories are eligible.

Winners

The excitement doesn’t stop there—our top three storytellers will be recognized at the February 15 meeting of Redwood Writers, with fabulous prizes of $100 for first place, $75 for second, and $50 for third! Plus, the winning tale will be published online and in our newsletter for all to see.

Due Date

Stories are due by 9:00 p.m., January 18, 2025. Mark your calendars!
