Forum Irlande / In English / General discussion / Short Story-Poem Competition 2010

The Franco-Irish Literary Festival, which takes place on the 16th, 17th and 18th of April 2010 at the Coach House in Dublin, is a meeting place for everyone interested in Irish and French Literature.

For this eleventh Festival, on the theme of “The City”, we have come up with a new idea : The Short Story/Poem Competition.

Everyone, Irish or French, student or not, is able to take part in this challenge.
Visit our blog http://afdublin.blogspot.com on the Alliance Francaise Website to find rules. (French and English language)

This is a great opportunity for all unpublished writers at heart

Send your short story or poem to business@alliance.francaise.ie

Good Luck

Thanks for sharing this piece of information, but I hope your contributions to the Forum won't only be about promoting your event.

As we have over 800 discussions opened on the Forum, it should be easy to find one on a topic you care about.

Madam,

My objective by promoting this Literary Festival and particularly the writing competition is the same as your forum. I try to create a link between french and Irish culture and by this way between French and Irish people. This is only a piece of information as you said but also an interesting partnership with "Forum-Irlande".  

I have been on this forum since the beginning of the month that's why i haven't got time yet to take part in any conversation but i take time to read them.

I hope you will understand my point of view.

Yours sincerely,

Thanks for your reply

The nature of forums are very fragile. We all know of forums where people had great discussions at the beginning but where, because of "laisser-aller", the environment changed and users started only to post messages promoting their events/products/etc.

I'm glad we cleared that up and i'm looking forward to reading your next messages.

Merrill

PS: the "Madam" is a 6.4 ft tall bearded bloke!

Thank you Merrill and really sorry for the "Madam"!
I won't make the mistake again!
