Sticklebacking – DEUX – A Micro Collection Pamphlet Competition – RESULTS

Well, I am pleased that I have finally gotten all of the way through the entries for this, only our second ever Stickleback Competition, but I think the results are worth the wait as there are THREE stunning wee collections that will be published in the soonerest of times.

The three winners then, are:

        1. Vicky Allen
        2. Brian McManus, and
        3. Oz Hardwick

Congratulations to each of them – you are going to love what they did with the format.

The plan this year was that we would release a Stickleback each month, but for lots of reasons that has been delayed, however I’m pleased to say that we should be kickstarting the wee fishes from the Summer and over the next few months we will see some fantastic work available direct from the poets as Ltd Edition Micro-pamphlets, and later as Free to Download eBook PDF versions.

Forthcoming Sticklebacks are on their merry way from:

        1. Eilín de Paor
        2. Vic Pickup and Jules Whiting
        3. Ann Sydney
        4. Ankh Spice
        5. Anne McMaster
        6. Robin McNamara
        7. Niki Strange
        8. Kate Young
        9. Vicky Allen
        10. Brian McManus
        11. Oz Hardwick
        12. Dawn Gorman
