My Story is a story telling competition to find the nation's most remarkable true stories. The BBC is inviting the whole country to tell and share their real life stories. The most compelling stories will be told on BBC One in 2010 and the winners will see their experiences published as paperback books.
True stories have inspired some of the most successful books and films of all time; by offering the chance to follow in their footsteps, My Story is a BBC campaign that hopes to get the whole nation writing and reading.
Send it to the BBC and enter the My Story competition. The finalists will get to tell their story in a major BBC One series — and five people will get their stories made into a book. Don't miss the BBC's helpful tips on how to write your story and get writing now. If your story meets the online House Rules, it may also be published on the BBC website.
