Thank you to all the people who entered our Mslexia Competition.
Well done to Emily, who has won a one year subscription to Mslexia Magazine.
Emily’s entry:
“I get up. The cat doesn’t answer when I call. The laptop whirs to life. I write, the keyboard speaks to me with a tap tap tap. I say hello to the postman. I write some more. I teach online. I write some more. I have dinner with my partner. Jon Snow presents the news. I chat with my partner but his voice is a little too deep, the timbre not quite right. I miss women’s voices.”
by I’m Laura. I started Novel Kicks in 2009. I wanted a place to post my writing as well as give other writers like me the opportunity to do the same. There is also a monthly book club, a writing room which features writing prompts, book reviews, competitions, author interviews and guest posts.
I grew up by the sea (my favourite place in the world) and I currently live in Hampshire. I am married to Chris, have a cat named Buddy and I would love to be a writer. I’m trying to write the novel I’ve talked so much about writing if only I could stop pressing delete. I’ve loved writing since creative writing classes in primary school. I have always wanted to see my teacher Miss Sayers again and thank her for the encouragement. When not trying to write the novel or writing snippets of stories on anything I can get my hands on, I love reading, dancing like a loon and singing to myself very badly. My current obsession is Once Upon a Time and I would be happy to live with magic in the enchanted forest surrounded by all those wonderful stories provided that world also included Harry Potter. I love reading chick lit. contemporary fiction and novels with mystery.
