I am grinning from ear to ear today.
As those who’ve endured this blog since its birth back in April/May, you’ll know I came out of the comedy closet and said this year I was going to give over some time to follow my dream of writing more, notably comedy.
There was a comedy writing competition this year. To enter it meant my taking a big leap, previously having been too nervous to let people actually see what I’ve written. I sent in my pieces and was just pleased to do that as it felt like a big step forward.
So imagine my face when I opened a letter this morning to say I’ve got through to the next round! Supposedly I went white!
I have to write some other pieces now.
I know there were a lot of entrants so I am amazed to get this far and wouldn't be disappointed if I didn't get to the next stage - but I will of course give it my best shot.
So, if over the next week I go very quiet or very hyper you know why!
That's brilliant! Well done and all the best for the next stage.

That's excellent news Beki
Even if you don't win there is a chance they may use some of your stuff if they like it.
