    Non-Fiction
  • A Vogon Christmas

All you have to do is to choose a category1, write your
masterpiece and submit it to the Post Box. You must supply your
h2g2 Researcher name and your h2g2 Researcher number and clearly title
the piece. All suitable2
Entries will be featured in the special Christmas supplement of The

the Post to decide the winners. The winning piece in each category
will be announced in the first edition of the New Year on 8th January.
