Mark Strong introduces Dear Me

💾

Last year, we received hundreds of entries our Dear London competition, in collaboration with The Times and Montblanc. We invited our readers to write to the capital - what the beguiling city means to them.

Our winner’s letter - Kerrin-Lee Neil’s ode to the “grit and glamour” of the capital – was read at Letters Live’s annual event at the Royal Albert Hall by Benedict Cumberbatch.

This year we are running the competition again, with a different subject: ‘Dear Me’ invites you to write a letter to yourself; your younger self, your future self, or the person you are now. The winner will have their letter read on stage at Letters Live.
