Stroud Short Stories Organiser Wins Short Story Award
We interrupt our normal promotion of our events to congratulate Stroud Short Stories Organiser John Holland on winning the Dorset Fiction Award - an award for short stories with fewer than one thousand words.
John's story 'Cows' - about two people in a car surrounded by a herd of cows - has won him First Prize, £500, and both online and print publication.

The story - and an interview - is here
Well done, John!
