After months of reading and deliberation, we’ve narrowed down our submissions pool to these final fifteen stories. We now hand over our shortlist to Morgan Talty, who has the tremendously difficult task of selecting the winning three. Congratulations to the writers selected for this year’s shortlist, and thank you from the bottom of our hearts to all the submitters who sent in their work this year. Check back at the end of the month for the winners, and stay tuned for news regarding our summer contest!
