University of Glasgow Narrative Non-fiction Writing Competition
We’re inviting you to submit pieces inspired by any research at the University of Glasgow, past or
present, from the sciences to the humanities. So you might write a personal essay about the origins
of Scotland’s oldest museum, or maybe you’re more interested in writing a moving memoir on
ultrasound, developed at Glasgow University in 1956. The competition is open to all and we are
also running free writing workshops in Glasgow on narrative non-fiction to get people started,
along with monthly social evenings where researchers, writers and readers can meet and discuss
their interests over a glass of wine. More details can be found at

Give it a go; we’re looking forward to reading what you come up with!
