Could your family history story be made into a book?

[hayleyl]

BBC MY STORY is a major new BBC campaign giving ordinary people the chance to have their true life story turned into a book, with a cash advance of £20,000-
We're looking for remarkable true life stories from ordinary members of the public, from all walks of life. Fifteen stories will feature in a major new five part TV series called MY STORY. Five people will win a major book deal with Harper Collins, AND a cash advance of £20,000.
This is not a writing competition, so you don't have to be good at writing to take part. The five winning stories will be ghostwritten by the publishers, and each of the five winners will have their name on the cover of their own book.
This competition is open to everyone over the age of 18. It doesn't matter who you are or where you come from, all that matters is that the story is true and based on your life or your family's life. All people have to do to enter is go to the BBC website bbc.co.uk/mystory, and click on the "Add Your Story “ icon.
