A rather marvellous thing has happened to me this week.
After months of sending out to writing competitions, I have finally heard back something heartening. From Comma Press!
Towards the end of last year I submitted a short story to them via their Dinesh Allirajah Prize. The theme was 'Artificial Intelligence', a subject I have written plenty for in the past. I am pleased to say that one of these stories has made their shortlist.
This is by no means the end of the process. A judging panel is currently reviewing all six stories before a winner is announced on Saturday 30th May as part of the Northern Short Story Festival in Leeds.
I wish the other shortlisters good luck and look forward to us all sharing space in an exclusive Comma Press ebook regardless of the final outcome.
In the meantime, I will do my best to distract myself with more themed posts on here and amusing word observations on Twitter.
For more information, here is the link to the official Comma Press shortlist announcement page...
