E-Access Bulletin is offering blind or visually impaired writers the
chance to win the latest in e-book reading hardware and software.
First prize in our writing competition is a 'Victor' e-book reader worth
more than 300 UK Pounds donated by VisuAide
(http://www.visuaide.com). Victor reads a new kind of CD talking
book which allows for fast, easy navigation (for a review see
E-Access Bulletin, March 2002). Runners-up will each receive a set of
10 classic e-books on CD worth around 100 UK Pounds. Winners will also
be published in a future issue of the bulletin - now with 3,000 readers
worldwide and translated into five languages!
Entries should be between 500 and 800 words long and address the
theme "keeping in touch with technology". The topic could cover
online relationships, the pace of technological change, how
technology has changed your life, or imagining what life could be like
in the future.
The closing date is Friday 26 July 2002 and the results will be
announced in our August issue. Please send entries to competition
organiser Phil Cain on [log in to unmask] or call him on +44 (0)1273 231
291 with any queries.
