Monday, Sept 10th saw the adjudcation for our own “Anything Goes” competition. Judge Andy Humphrey gave excellent feedback on all the entered pieces of writing, which was much valued by everyone attending. The winner was Sunyi Dean for her story “Ice Cream and English Summers”. Since entering the piece for this competition she has succeeded in getting a version of it published by Flash Fiction Online. Read it here. Double congratulations are therefore in order. In second was Jason, also winner of the Annavation Prize. Third was Peter Richardson. Full details on the Competitions Page.
Sunyi will be a familiar face to those in the Novelist’s Group. Members will be delighted to know that she’s on something of a roll at the moment, having just secured an agent for her adult speculative fiction novel “Anchor (To Your Other Self)”. There is an online interview here that gives some background. It’s a good read. She also occasionally blogs.
Sunyi has had a number of other short stories published this summer: “John Kills Jenny” and “-Good” can be read on-line by following the links. Sunyi has also had success with “A Possible Serenity” in Andromeda Spaceways Magazine and “Deserted Lies the City” in Aurealis #111.
Well done! And how exciting. I’m still not a member as the move to Leeds isn’t happening. But I enjoy receiving the notices, which I read! Something like this deserves a comment. Bravo!
