Islands Magazine story contest

The editors at Islands Magazine have just informed me that they are holding a travel-writing contest this winter, with the winner scoring publication in the magazine and a free trip to Tahiti. Only non-professional writers (that is, those who derive less than 20 percent of income from writing) are eligible to enter.

The entry information at the Islands website reads:

Are you ready to go on the trip of a lifetime? Write about your best island experience. Inspire us. Sweep us away. Make your story come alive with writing something we won’t soon forget. Tell us your story in a maximum of 1,000 words. The editors of ISLANDS will choose the best tale, publish it, then pack you and a friend off to Tahiti, where you’ll stay 5 nights in the Sheraton Moorea Resort & Spa.

Stories should be emailed to editorial@islands.com, with the words TAHITI CONTEST in the subject line. Deadline is March 31st.

    Being a student of history I looked up the battle of Las Chorreras on the web
    and read with interest a lot of the information along with all of the information
    about Dunn’s River Falls. Looks like the falls are a “must see” for my family.
    Thanks,
    Harry A. Willson

    Sept/Oct 2009 issue asks where the picture is from; it is Dunn’s River Falls outside of Ocho Rios, Jamaica. It is a very refreshing spot!! Be prepared to get wet.

    I just climbed Dunns River Falls, Ocho Rios Jamaica for the second time in July. This was even more fun the second time around. I was so excited to see the Falls as I finished reading the Sept./Oct. 2009 issue of Islands Magazine.

    This mystery island landmark photo featured in Islands’ September-October issue is Dunn’s River Falls, near Ocho Rios, Jamaica. Looks just like when we left it in December, mon!
