B7 writing opportunity / looking for fantasy authors

[altariel]

Big Finish have an open submissions opportunity for Blake's 7 writers at the moment. See here for more information. Deadline is tight: 10 June for a one page outline (for a 20k novella), and the first 1000 words. You Can Do It!

fjm is researching Empire/Commonwealth and Irish children's fantasy writers in the thirty or so years after WW2. Can you add to the list?

I'd like to have a go but I doubt I could think up a plot for a 20k novella and write the first 1000 words. Not in that short time.

Damn.

Give it a go! Give it a go!

But I have to finish my crossover of weirdness by the 8th!

Aaugh!

OK, if an idea attacks me...

Brilliant! :-)

I wonder if the deadline is that short in order to see how people write under pressure?
Or is it that the deadline wasn't that short, but none of us found out until later?

The press release is dated 31 May. I found out by Twitter a couple of days ago, but this is the first chance I've had to post to LJ.

OHHHHHHHHH if only this opportunity had come back when I was still fully versed in the show and didn't have my own separate projects....

SURELY it's worth a punt anyway?

I'm only managing about 2500 words a week, alas.

Aw, it's a tight deadline.
