WOTY competition - mid year results


OK then, I've crunched the WOTY mid year results and barring any cock ups by myself this is the state of play after today's results are taken into consideration.

Clearly the Big O is having a really good year but Wren still could take him.  Chip has a bit of a bigger push to get out front and steveB - following this month's performance - can't be discounted.

Finally, Titus has overtaken me!  Better get writing (or cheating on the scores)

Welcome to the Unofficial Newsbiscuit Writer of the Month Competition

If you've strayed onto this blog please note it is being used to keep the monthly results of the Writer's competition run unofficially by myself on behalf of the contributors to the UK's foremost satire news site, Newsbiscuit .  Newsbiscuit was created and is supported by comic genius John O'Farrell to provide a place for aspiring and proven comic writers alike to work in.  This blog is not an official organ of Newsbiscuit and any errors or omissions are mine alone, If you want to get to Newsbiscuit itself (and who wouldn't) then click here . If you fancy having a stab at writing satire (or any form of humour) then the Writer's Room is here .  Please note you have to register with the website before you can contribute.  If you want to read the guidelines for writers, please click here . Most writers write under a pseudonym, partly to be mysterious, mainly to keep their reputations intact.  Top tip - choose a name that is short and, critically, easy f...
