WRITER'S BLOCK 2021

Theme: CRIME FICTION

This year's Writer's Block challenge theme was crime fiction; and we are delighted to confirm the following results:


  • 1st Place: Andrea Neidle - My Killer Blog
  • 2nd Place: Rob Summers - Within
  • Joint 3rd Place: Geoff Brown - Passengers From Hell; Liz Shaw - The Living Daylights


All 15 entries were judged by A J Park (Karl Vadaszffy), crime novelist, who visited us two years ago when his first novel The First Lie was published. He has just launched his second novel, Don't Speak.


Karl very kindly joined us for our evening on 28 February to announce the winner; but, also to provide constructive feedback on all the entries. The standard was incredibly high.

  

Thank you to all those who entered; and our sincere thanks to Karl.
