The Bright Light Multimedia "True Love" Writing Contest What
is true love? What does it mean to you? Can
you remember or imagine a wonderful experience of "True
Love"? Are
you in love? Have you ever been in love? Do you ever
hope to be in love? Is True Love confined to romantic
interest, or is it about family, friends, pets, hobbies, careers
and global caring? Love
makes our world richer and kinder, yet all of us have remarkably
different experiences, dreams and hopes surrounding the concept of
"True Love". Share your loving thoughts with the
world and you could win the Bright Light Multimedia "True
Love" Writing Competition. The
theme of the competition is based on the idea of "True
Love" (“True Love” is a theme, not necessarily a title). It
can be fact or fiction, and must be free from hate,
racism, sexism, violence, pornography, crudity, pessimism,
cynicism, religion and politics. Writers
may submit in 3 separate categories – Poetry, Short Stories and
Articles. The Bright Light Multimedia "True Love"
