Hear the shortlisted writers read their stories in front of our wonderfully supportive and encouraging panel of judges: acclaimed short story writer and novelist Anne Donovan; writer and intersectional feminist Sim Bajwa; Zoe Strachan, award-winning writer and tutor on the postgraduate creative writing programme at the University of Glasgow; and GWL’s own librarian, Wendy Kirk.
Winners will be announced on the night. Prizes include a one to one mentoring session with one of our judges and a selection of covetable books.
