The judge, Louise Philips, has this to say about my piece:
"This story explores a darkness many of us understand. It is raw, touching, and it makes the reader want to reach into the narrator, and tell them to hold tight. The emotion and the magic in this piece of prose is found in the minuteness, in the ordinary, in the sparse use of words and phraseology, while all the time bringing the reader further in, until we too, feel the pain."
