Future Writers’ Publishing Success
Left to right: Cara Gaskell, Toby Lynch, Lizzie Wood and Jocelyn Howarth
Three Future Writers elective students, Cara Gaskell, Lizzie Wood and Jocelyn Howarth, have been published in the short story book Mission Catastrophe – Lancashire Tales, having been successful in a competition run by the Young Writers foundation.
English teacher Toby Lynch said: “The brief stipulated that students had to write a complete narrative of exactly 100 words on the subject of the aftermath of a catastrophic event. The students all did brilliantly to manage the challenging task so well – every word had to count – and that they all came up with something so very different was testament to the high levels of creativity I’ve been seeing all year from the Future Writers”.
A copy of the book with all of the stories from our students can be found in the college library.
