the storm.
The
judges do not want you to copy his style of
writing, as we want you to develop your own, but
the judges want to see strong evidence of the
competitors having read the sources. We also want
to see evidence of the contrasting themes within
your writing.
Writing Task.
Write
a 500 word essay, extended poem, or in the form of
a letter, using the theme “the calm before the
storm”
Please read
the page of source material: the Judges do not wish you
to imitate the style of Henry Williamson, but
rather to develop your own style.
