Endorsement by Zadie Smith...

It's been a roller coaster over the last week, reading the Willesden Herald Blog, and Zadie Smith's wake-up call to writers of short fiction to do do better. Her refusal to award the prize this year has caused ripples, and they are still spreading:

The Sunday Times carried almost a whole page: HERE

Yesterday's Daily Telegraph followed suit: HERE


But hey:

If people want to know what she does like, there are two in this book... In Words from a Glass Bubble.

One joint first prizewinner from 2006 (Dodie's Gift), and one runner up from 2007 - the title story that went on to take second at Fish.
