Winners of our most recent short story competition are published here. Congratulations to Mary, Peter and Terry for their work.  And thank you to each of the many writers who sent in their stories.

Judging time is the highlight of each quarter, always testing and challenging. That’s something to celebrate: we always find great pleasure in reading the many wonderful and inventive stories you send in.

You can find the winning stories using the StoryTime tab above, along with the list of Highly Commended authors.

Onwards and upwards. The new competition closing date is 30 September. We look forward to hearing from our readers and of course our writers.
