Writing Wednesday |
I am delighted to say that Wash, Rinse, Spin was longlisted for the competition! At the time of writing this, the winner hasn't yet been announced. (I'm trying to generously wish all the short-listed contenders luck!)
I chose to adapt a chapter of my book In the Shade of the Mulberry Tree. The chapter was relatively self-contained and (I hope) quite funny, looking at the very standard activity of getting my hair cut for the first time in a foreign land. For those who don't know, In the Shade of the Mulberry Tree is the story of my first year living in Zambia with two young children - and many of my escapades revolve around the steep learning curve of living in such a different environment.
If you are interested in reading it, I have published it in a separate page of the blog: Wash, Rinse, Spin.
I hope you enjoy it. Do let me know what you think!

Congratulations - it is so confidence boosting to have succes like this.
I can't get the link to connect though - will try later.
Thanks for highlighting this to me. I have - hopefully - corrected it today. Another techno failure from this side!
