AND THE WINNER IS: “Pocket Hedgehog Micro Collection Competition #1″

 

Pocket Hedgehog Micro Collection Competition

Well, a little over-late, I’m afraid, but regardless of that I am verily chuffed to be able to announce the Winners, and Shortlisted Poets, from our first Pocket Hedgehog Competition, that will see two shiny new pocket wonders appearing later this year.

The Shortlist is:

    1. Natasha Tate (Commended)
    2. Jack Richardson
    3. Tim Relf
    4. Eliot North
    5. Miriam Otto
    6. Philippa Ramsden
    7. Gerald Killingworth
    8. Miranda Moon
    9. Greta Ross
    10. David Burns
    11. Mara Kalsi-Spiller
    12. Joanne Walsh (Highly Commended)
    13. Emily Freeborn (Commended)
    14. Glenn Barker
    15. Oz Hardwick
    16. Susan Evans
    17. Alison Brown
    18. Gareth Culshaw
    19. Cher Engerer Kerr
    20. Niki Strange (Highly Commended)

This has proven to be a truly difficult decision, but in the end I’m pleased to say that I chose TWO Winners who will see their collections published by Hedgehog in 2026, if not earlier.

And the winners are…

TIM RELF

and

OZ HARDWICK

Congratulations to both and many thanks to everybody that shared their work. It was brilliant to get the opportunity to read it all.
