Fresher Writing Prize Shortlist

in Updates on 19/04/16

The standard (and number!) of entries has been incredibly high this year, so it has been quite a challenge to come up with a shortlist. Debate among the judging panel has been intense, as I’m sure you can imagine, but we’re finally agreed and here it is!  Congratulations if your name is included below and, if not, do carry on writing and we hope to see more of your work in 2017. The shortlist is by category, so scroll down to see yours (Poetry and Non-Fiction to come). We look forward to meeting all shortlisted writers at the Fresher Writing Prize Awards in Bournemouth on the 19th May.

    Dear writing wizardry organisers. I forgot to put Writing wizardry in the subject title . I’m guessing it wasn’t counted . ??
