Well, even by my own standards, this one has taken longer than planned. As many of you know, life has somewhat gotten in the way of my ill-paved patio of plans, but I am verily pleased to say that the final Crimson Spine Competition can now be unveiled, even if a month or two late (ahem).
And I am rather chuffed then to announce that the shortlisted poets are:
-
- Emeline Winston (Highly Commended)
- Gillie Robic
- Richard Hugh (Commended)
- Gary Day
- T.A. Martin
- Anne McMaster (Highly Commended)
- Phillipa Ramsden
- Dawn Rhodes-Shaw (Highly Commended)
- Lesley Curwen
- Cath Kansara (Commended)
But there can only be One Winner, and I am so pleased to say that this time it is:
T.A. Martin
for
“Liking it”
Many thanks to everybody who took part – and of course, congratulations to Thomas and all that made the Shortlist :)
