Childhood Competition - And The Winner Is...

Friday 4th February 2011 6:53 pm

Hello,

Thanks to everyone who took part by submitting a poem or voting for their favourite(s). Seems like a great many people had trouble choosing just one. It's been really interesting to see how everyone has approached the subject of Childhood - I wasn't sure how well it would go down as a topic.

Anyway, here are the results:

The winner:

Anna Percy – Childhood Recollection: http://writeoutloud.net/public/blogentry.php?blogentryid=18899

Second place:

Kath Hewitt – My Childhood Rainbow: http://writeoutloud.net/public/blogentry.php?blogentryid=18861

Joint third place:

Chris Co – Where Did They Go: http://writeoutloud.net/public/blogentry.php?blogentryid=18687

Rachel Bond - Thoughts From Childhood: http://www.writeoutloud.net/public/blogentry.php?blogentryid=18391

Congratulations!

Anna, if you email me an address I'll post you out the £10 Waterstones voucher this weekend.

Thanks again, have a great weekend everyone.

Thom

Congratulations, Anna. Your poem is absolutely worthy of first choice among the WOL readers. Everyone sent in high calibre work, and I greatly enjoyed reading variations on this past theme also.
