Well, it's been a while... We've been away, mainly working the day job (at Simon & Schuster, publishing, amongst many great novels, some amazing short stories). So this site has been a little neglected.

But no more! We're back with a vengeance. This week we have two amazing new short stories both of which are prize-winners.

A few months ago we teamed up with the London Writers Club and Hush , purveyors of lovely lounging-around-the-house-reading-stories-wear, to find great new stories and the response was amazing. Working with the acclaimed short story writer Alison Macleod and LWC we whittled down the submissions to a shortlist of ten, and then had the difficult task of choosing our winner. In fact, it was so difficult that we chose not one, but two winners!

So, please do try the new stories - Lullaby by Jo Tiddy and Stalin's Good Friday by Lucie Wilk. And we're also featuring a Christmassy favourite - A Marvellous Party by Kat Brown to get you in the festive mood.

And come back soon - we've got lots more to come. It's good to be back!
