Catchfire Press is pleased to announce a new competition for prose and poetry,
Wood, Brick & Stone: The Making of the Hunter
Wood, brick and stone – basic building materials that help people make their mark upon our environment. Roads, bridges, jetties, dams, buildings where we live, work and worship. From the time the first stones are quarried or timber felled, there are stories – stories about bark humpies to modern skyscrapers and the people involved. Has a particular structure inspired you? Is there a building you love or hate? Send your stories and poems, fact or fiction, about how our constructions have affected the landscape of the Hunter. Catchfire Press invites you to write for possible inclusion in WOOD, BRICK & STONE, in the following categories:
• Prose (200 – 2500 word limit)
• Poetry (up to 100 lines)
In each category:
First place – $300
Second place – $200
Commendations will be awarded

Send your entries by 30 September 2010 with entry fee ($10.00 per entry) and completed entry form to:  WOOD, BRICK & STONE, Catchfire Press, PO Box 2101, DANGAR, NSW, 2309.
