Our anthology gives winners the chance to see their work in print for the very first time and makes them eligible for exclusive competitions, including The Sunday Times Short Story Competition with a stomping £30,000 first prize. Gerard McKeague was longlisted in 2018 having come third in the Bridport Prize the same year for his short story Wet Bloody Country.
We have decided to publish two anthologies each year, giving writers even more exposure. One anthology features winning poems, short stories and flash fiction whilst the other includes extracts from the novel longlist.
