Anybody else honing their sci-fi writing skills on this? I ummmed & ahhhhed for ages & then decided that the premise was just too interesting to let it pass. And a deadline is always helpful.
I never have any expectations with big competitions like this, more that they can occasionally spark the imagination & it’s interesting to see where that might lead.

Here's a #writing competition, closing date 26th April, theme "Inspirational women". Though to be honest I'm mostly posting this in wonderation of the lack-of-thought process whereby you put all the details into an image file instead of text even though you are (a) based in a tech incubator and (b) are an organisation whose stated purpose is as a "Platform for international dialogue and cultural exchange."
Two *big* reasons why you should know better.
