Roll up, roll up – this is the final call for entries for our Powers Short Story Competition. We have been inundated with entries, but there is still some time to put pen to paper and give us your own version of the perfect short story.
Remember to get a mention of Powers in there, and if you need some inspiration, have a look at the advertisement below. It is from the original 1980s Powers advertisement campaign designed by McConnell’s – but we reckon anything they can do, our Magazine readers can do better.
Write a short story and win €10,000
The 1980s campaign for Power's Gold Label was an extraordinarily successful campaign. So here's a challenge for our readers. Write a short story in only 450 words that mentions Powers Gold Label, on the topic of "celebrating what really matters". The prize is €10,000 and publication in The Irish Times.
