Short Story Adjudication

Nick David from York Writers kindly offered to judge our Short Story Competition.

The adjudication provided plenty of food for thought. Nick explained his criteria for choosing the winning stories and then commented in detail on each of the twelve. His constructive criticism and the individual written critiques received by each entrant were very much appreciated.

Nick presented the Members’ Trophy to Maggie Cobbett for A Deal’s a Deal. In second place was Cathy Grimmer’s Without a Trace and Ella Benigno came third with Wartime Memories.

Our friendly group meets once a fortnight in an upstairs room at the So! Bar and is always open to new members from the Ripon area and beyond. Whether your interest is in poetry or prose, novels, short stories, plays, wacky humour, a more analytical style of writing, or just listening for the time being, you're very welcome.
