Recently, Transportation Press announced the winner—Daniel Young, for ‘Dalian Blood Futures’ (huzzah!)—and runners-up—Robbie Arnott and Patrick Lenton, for ‘Zoo’ and ‘What is a Hornet’, respectively—for its first international microfiction competition, Smoke, judged by Adam Ouston. Congratulations to Daniel, Robbie and Patrick!
I’m delighted my ‘Do You Mind If (after OW & SB)’ was highly commended alongside writing by Bella Li, Kali Myers and Ben Walter et al. Thanks to Adam, Transportation Press, and Fullers Bookshop, who sponsored the competition.
Smoke One is a collection of the microfiction by the winner, the runners-up and eighteen highly commended writers, and is available in print and electronically.
