This is the month that the UK Songwriting Contest gets judged and ‘yours truly’ has several songs and instrumental tracks entered.

The judging panel is very high-powered this year: world renowned producers such as Simon Ellis (visit Simon’s website)and Richard Niles (visit Richard’s website).

Other people carefully watching the contest include The Stage’s Scott Matthewman and Director of TV at Universal Music UK Lesley Douglas among others.

I’ve won a few runner-up prizes in this contest before, but it’s been a few years now since I entered.

If I win, I’ll let you know. If I don’t, I’ll simply go all mysteriously quiet for a few days
