Waterstone’s says: "...some of the most beautifully crafted and engrossing stories that one can read..." The Asham Award website says: "This stunning range of work is not afraid to explore the darker side of human emotion, yet allows us to see the light which often wavers at the end of the bleakest and longest tunnel. These beautifully written stories are in the best literary tradition, lyrical yet understated. "

Great news! I need a little more detail... did they finally call you?
Congratulations! I look forward to hearing how it goes.
Best of luck with it, Vanessa. It's a unique and very special course, and a beautiful part of Wales. Apart from the sheer joy and education of working with such fantastic poets and short fiction writers, I doubt if The Mathematics of Love would be on quite so many bookshop shelves - if any at all - without it.
Hey, fantastic! You must be so happy that it's all sorted. And now, to add a little more mayhem to your life, I just tagged you on my blog. :)
Finally! Congrats.

Hi Emma
I am pleased! Thank you very much for your support at the start of the process, a year back or so now...
I am really looking forward to all that writing time back in my old stamping grounds. And to the guidance I so badly need with structuring my 'novel' (or whatever it is). And the chance to sink into a bit of academic stuff too.
I loved your description (on your blog)of riding over the Beacons after the weekend trips up to Treforest... might just dig out the hard hat!

Hi Tania
to cut a v long story to flash length... I talked to the Prof on the phone. A good conversation.
Indeed, Nik.
I went grey waiting...!
Hi Sue
I love mayhem!
HI Sarah
I have to keep some sort of process diary, I think... so will use the blog to practice. May as well start with a few bits about my writing processes in the run-up.
