Shaun Hutson said about the winning stories.
'The Window' "Very evocative, well written with a good atmosphere. It progresses well and it's gripping."
'The Siren of Low Tide' "I really enjoyed this. Moody, brooding and nicely downbeat. It's tightly written
and to the point, not a word wasted."
'Life's a Screram' "Very enjoyable. Good sense of humour and a nice eye for detail. Pleasingly cynical."
A massive congratulations to our winners.
Don't forget, our Short Story competition is open until the 31st May.
