To celebrate the release of The Crystal Code, book four in Richard Newsome’s award-winning Billionaire series, we’re running a writing competition for students aged 10–13 years.

The winner’s school will receive a $1,000 credit voucher and the winning writer a $100 credit voucher to spend in one Australian or New Zealand bookshop, courtesy of Text Publishing.

To be part of the competition, students must write a story of no more than 500 words about what would happen if they inherited billions of dollars.

The competition opens 1 October 2012. A completed entry form (below) must accompany each story, and entries must be received at Text Publishing by Friday 9 November 2012.
