About the Book

Twenty short stories by the winners and finalists of The Write Stuff Short Story Competition 2015. Literary powerhouse Barbara Taylor Bradford OBE has joined forces with The Sunday Times to help discover the next generation of young female writers. The Write Stuff short story competition is aimed at girls aged 11-18 and who live in the UK, and the challenge is to write a short, fictional story with a central theme of 'friendship', running to a maximum of 1,000 words. Barbara knows a thing or two about writing great stories. She had her first short story published when she was 10-years-old and, once she saw her name in print, she knew she wanted to be a writer. Since then, she's written 30 best-selling books which have been published in over 40 languages and in more than 90 countries and has sold over 88 million copies to date!

About the Author :

Review :
Comment on the finalists by Barbara Taylor Bradford OBE I was very excited when I began to read the final stories in the writing competition. The more I delved in to these very unique stories, the more thrilled I became. I was reading stories that had been written by very clever, young women who displayed their talent, imagination, and command of the English language. What a joy for me to know that out there so many young women are involved in reading and writing… because, let’s face it, if you can’t read, you can’t write. I am delighted that I started this competition in partnership with The Sunday Times, and with the support of my publishers HarperCollins and the National Literacy Trust, because it has given me great hope for the future. I believe we have got an enormous amount of talented and dedicated girls out there. I’m glad that we have all decided to continue this writing competition because I believe it will encourage even more young women to try their hand at writing a short story and for them to showcase their talent. One of the things that impressed me most was the thought, intelligence, and maturity which came to the fore in these stories. I want to say congratulations to everyone who entered, and I had a hard time selecting the winners because every story was so good.
