Haynet is looking for the new Jilly Cooper or Dick Francis

The social media site for horse lovers invites entries for the Equestrian Short Story Competition
The competition is being run by Haynet and Lavender & White Equestrian Publishing. It is for short stories with an equestrian theme, up to 6,500 words. Stories may be in any genre, but should be equestrian-themed, ie a crime story, fantasy or romance with a horsey background, rather than a story about a particular horse.
The winning story will be published as an ebook, with all proceeds going to the equine charity World Horse Welfare, and the winner will get a Haynet hoody. Two runners up will be published on the Haynet and Lavender & White Equestrian Publishing websites.
There is no fee for entry.
The closing date is 11 August.
