Hello friends, readers and fellow writers,
Welcome to my birthday month...just two more weeks till I get to eat my favourite cake! Once again I'm thrilled to tell you that I've had more success: I've been published. Two of my short stories (written for adults) are now in printed anthologies, which I'm hugely thrilled about. I'll receive a copy of these in the post in the next week — perhaps even today. So, drumroll........ Here's the link to the famous Sydney bookshop, Better Read Than Dead, who ran the competition and printed the best stories in their anthology: https://www.betterreadkids.com/product-page/better-read-than-dead-writing-anthology-2020 And here's the link to Hawkeye Publishing's Anthology 'Reset', containing the best stories from the Sydney Hammond Short Story Competition. anthology/hawkeyebooks.com.au/reset-sydney-hammond-short-story-comp-2020-anthology/ I also won 3rd prize in the Port Stephens Literature Award 2020... AND been Highly Commended in the Marjorie Graber-McInnis Short Story Award with ACT Writers (Dec 2020). So once again I had to update the Awards And Commendations on my webpage. I hope you enjoy these stories if you choose to purchase. I can't wait! Back to the keyboard now to continue on with a rollicking, rhyming picture book I am working on. It's such fun, and I bounce as I walk beside the lake during my breaks, feeling the rhythm of the stanzas. Sometimes I even solve niggling rhyme quandaries. Exercise is definitely good for me. Go well, Deborah x
