Here I am, wandering around a stone circle. Anyone recognise it? I like the way the relatively large, man made circle is dwarfed by the natural landscape around it.
For those who were wondering, the avenue of trees in last week's post is growing on the site of Erddig castle (a motte and bailey) in Wales.
Free entry competitionsHere's a crime novel competition for authors who've not yet published a novel. The prize is publication and a $10,000 advance.
If a whole novel seems a bit daunting, how about a story in 50 words? The prizes are correspondingly smaller, but that's fair enough. This month's theme is quite appropriate for this blog.

Ha! I recognise that stone circle :) One of the places we take guests...
Thanks for the comps, Patsy.
And as encouragement to your readers I won one of the comps you featured recently, a link I sent you as I intended to enter, for eco stories run by Southampton Uni. My little flash fiction was the winner in the food category but not overall winner. Still, I'm taking it, and the prize money...

Well done to all with positive news. I haven't anything to report, apart from a poem being published in a local paper and WW reserving a story. I'm finding it difficult to get back to writing, after having the flu. I'm not pushing myself and I'll return when I feel ready.
Thanks, Patsy.
Congratulations, Alyson on your win.
I had an 'on file' acceptance from Andrew Shaw.
I think it's Castlerigg.
