Frank O'Connor Award Longlist

Words from a Glass Bubble has been nominated by Salt Publishing for the Frank O'Connor Award this year, along with seven other Salt titles.

We are up against some extremely scary big names, big publishers.

But hey... lovely to be nominated, thanks for having faith in us all, Jen and Chris!

Thanks Oslo

It is lovely of Salt to nominate the books. I'm just sad for those writers with collections with other publishers who haven't entered them. There's some good stuff out there! But as Women Rule Writer said on her blog... its worth writers researching these opportunities and pushing their publishers to enter.
