My story, Quality Time, recently won a short story competition run by Soundwork. The prize was to have it read by an actor and recorded for their site – and today it has appeared!

This is a first for me, and of course, I’m both delighted and grateful to have it in the public arena.

Having another voice bringing one’s words to life definitely adds a different and interesting dimension. You can listen to it here. 

The story won first prize in the Henshaw Press competition last year, and you can read it here. 

Many thanks to both organisations for choosing my work. The encouragement is inestimable. (The picture is of Miggy, the Soundwork cat…)
