We’re very pleased to announce the winners of our most recent short story competition. The three top stories cover a wide range of topics. What they each have in common is a very strong ending.

Winner is Judgement Day, by Kevin Sleight from Bognor Regis. Runners-up are I Promise, by Marion MacDonald from Glasgow; and Admission, by Roger Noons of Kingswimford.

Six more stories in the September competition have been Highly Commended — see the full list here.

Thank you to everyone taking part in this competition. And if your story didn’t get a mention in the winners’ list we’ll be happy to provide some brief feedback free of charge. See here for more details.

The current competition ends on 31 December. See How to Enter.
