When we announced the fourth competition in this fantastically popular series 1273 entries came pouring in. Well-known, established authors as well as a whole lot of new-comers, young and not so young put their fingers to the keyboard and produced a fascinating collection of 500 word stories. This volume contains the 100 best entries.About the AuthorStephen Stratford is an award-winning journalist turned fulltime writer whose 12 previous books include The Jafa Joke Book, and New Zealand Sports Joke Book. He has been a judge for many journalism and literary awards - three times for the Montana Book Awards - and was editor of the books magazine Quote Unquote. The 500 word story is a challenge to write and a joy to read. The neat one page format that can be read in a minute but still has satisfying content and construction which focuses the mind of both writer and reader. The collections, which have a very wide readership, present a range of styles and subject matter; humour, drama, romance, tragedy, all revealing in an entertaining way the skills of the writers who can rise to the 500 word challenge.
