Futures

On Saturday 3 August, we launched Futures into the world. It was wonderful to share this special book with all the friends and supporters in the audience.

Thank you to Kristin Martin for launching the book so beautifully! Kristin managed a shout out to each of the 28 authors in her speech and gave a tantalising glimpse of each story to whet the audience’s appetite.

We were fortunate to have many of the authors in attendance, and had the great pleasure of announcing the award winners. We had originally intended to award 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners, but there were so many great stories that we broke the rules and also awarded 3 Highly Commended stories. All the winners are below.

Thank you to everyone who came to support Futures and Glimmer Press!
