Bristol's Great Reading Adventure is sponsoring a contest to write a piece of Day of the Triffids fanfic, with cash prizes of £750 and £450.
In The Day of the Triffids, Josella Playton is separated from Bill Masen by the intervention of Coker and his crew, and sent to work in Westminster. We do not encounter Josella again until Bill finds her at Shirning Farm in Sussex, and she gives a brief account of how she escaped from the city.
We invite you to write a short story imagining what Josella might have experienced on her journey out of London to her friends' home.
(Thanks, Sandra!)
