    Thanks @katemachon and @raine.

    I have no idea when the shortlist will be announced. I didn’t even know the longlist was out until I saw someone twitting about it! There are so many great and experienced writers on that list I’m really chuffed I made it that far.

    Thanks Philippa, Thea. Not much prospect of me progressing but I’m sure Elle is in with a chance.

    I know I’m incredibly talented, Daeds, I’m just pretending to be modest.

    I’m delighted, thrilled, stunned and generally, totally chuffed that my entry for our own Room with a View writing comp has been given a highly commended in the Michael Terrence short story comp. There is also a teasing mention of publication for a selection of the highly commended stories on the MTP webpage but no confirmation, as yet.

    MTP short story comp

    As if that wasn’t enough, a comic strip I scripted is being published in Futurequake, a small press comic of impecable credentials. 1 March is the date for my comic debut.

    Congratulations Stevie! If the system hasn’t changed with TMP all highly commended stories are published in the anthology.

    This story (in its various drafts) got rejected eleven (11!!!) times before it finally found a home last month with Barren Magazine.

    Oh wow, what a story @philippaeast. Suspense and pacing tight as a drum, cool and utterly unnerving. Brilliant!

    A great reminder that if you keep on battering your head against that wall, sometimes it cracks! Congratulations Philippa. I’ll go and enjoy the read.
