Dear Sir/Madam
As you know, Days Like This is an exciting nationwide project run by
Scottish Book Trust and BBC Radio Scotland aimed at encouraging people
to write about a special day in their life. The project aims to gather
hundreds of extraordinary tales, from born-and-bred Scots to
newly-arrived immigrants.
We would really like to encourage more of your group members to send a
story, as we very much hope to have a wide range of stories from a
variety of people. (And many thanks to those of you who have already
sent in a story!)
To help them with inspiration, they might like to read some of the 250
stories sent so far (http://www.scottishbooktrust.com/node/23780) or
check bestselling author Irvine Welsh's top tips to get started
(http://www.scottishbooktrust.com/irvine-welshs-top-tips-for-writing-your-story).
Anyone can send a story - content is what matters! Stories should be
no longer than 1,000 words and can be about anything as long as it's
true! All stories will appear on the BBC website for everyone to read.
The best ones will be recorded and discussed in a series of radio
programmes and appear in a book to be published in late January 2009.
Remember, deadline for stories is 1 November 2008
With best wishes
Clare
