Winning Stories
Thank you to everyone who took part in our 2016 competitions.
We had a lot of very unusual stories this year, both flash and shorts, but that is exactly how we like it. It constantly amazes us how much talent and imagination there is out there, and our winning stories and runners up certainly reflect that.
We hope you enjoy reading them too.
