gritLIT challenges Hamilton’s new or emerging authors to put their speed-writing skills to the test! You will be given a prompt and one or two required elements. Can you incorporate them into a 500-word-or-less story in one hour? The winner, decided by local author Nicola Winstanley, will receive a $50 gift certificate from Epic Books and have their story published on the gritLIT website.
