Hey
I wrote a very short 500 word children's story.
I have been told its very good.
Does anyone have any idea how i can go about getting it published? or included in a published short story collection?
Thanks

It would need to be illustrated. Something of which can be done if required.
I will be happy to post a snippet but not the whole piece of writing.
Its called "The Power Cut"
Please note: Grammar, Spelling and punctuation are things that may be lacking within my writing. I am Dyslexic, Yet that didn't stop me getting an A* in GCSE last year along with passing my written sections of my PGCE @ Masters level.. So hold your tongue grammar nazi's!

Down in the basement of old man Franks house was a large table, this table was decorated in such a splendid way. It had little pristine carvings upon the legs, along the top there were tiny perfect copper tracks with little arches next to them all laid into the wooden table top.
Now this table wasn’t just a normal decorative table, this table was one of a kind, for what was within this table were little creatures that lived to dance.
The Creatures would only come out when the surroundings were dark, one would venture out to make sure the room was empty and silent, if all was well the table would light up from the tiny lights positioned along the copper tracks, and the little creatures would emerge from the arches and begin to dance along the lit up copper tracks. If only you could see the marvellous sight of hundreds of them dancing to an inaudible tune, causing dancing shadows to project onto the surrounding walls.
