You’ll then have until midnight on Sunday to submit your responses for a chance of publication. Publication of responses begins on Monday, 16 June and doesn’t finish until the team is done reading through all the wondrous things you send us.\u00a0 Due to the ever-growing number and quality of submissions, The Write-In is now submitting award nominations.<\/p>\n
