I finally got to hand out the prizes for my short story writing competition to the last school. It was fun. I am always nervous presenting in front of anyone, let alone a full school assembly but I think I spoke well and didn’t stuff anything up. Hopefully the kids will enjoy the prize and the letter I wrote them.
Last night I was thinking ‘I don’t have the year levels on the envelopes, what if there are kids with the same name…nah, won’t happen.’
Yeah it happened.
Was a little awkward, but the wrong kid was in prep so it was an easy fix but I feel bad for the little prepper. I might give him a book anyway.
They took photos of me with the winners and I know I will look terrible because I don’t know how to stand, or where to put my hands, or smile for the camera.

You’ll have made a huge impact on those kids, maybe even inspired a member of the next generations of writers. Well done!
Thank you. I appreciate you saying that. Hopefully it will!
Good job, Dan!
Thank you!
This is wonderful, something those kids will remember forever. 😺
I do hope so. Thank you :)
