The South African Writers' Circle hosts a monthly writing competition for its members, covering a range of genres including fiction, YA, fantasy, poetry, etc. We usually get 15-25 entries, and pay a nominal judge's fee for each entry adjudicated.
We also host an Annual Short Story Competition open to all writers, which attracts about 50 entries.
We look for judges of these competitions who are preferably published writers themselves, or who have established credentials in the editing field.
Anyone interested in such commissions may contact me directly.
