New Creative Writing

Summer Short Story Competition

Congratulations to Linda Henderson, winner of the first BooksfromScotland.com short story competition. The judges were impressed by the evocation of time and place in her story, and the economy of the writing. Read the winning entry, Gudrid, on BooksfromScotland.com.

The second-placed entry in our short story competition is now available. Crème de la Crème by Kate Blackadder is set in Festival-time Edinburgh and was a firm favourite with the BooksfromScotland.com staff.

• Our first short story is from respected author Ruth Thomas, with her story How to Have Meetings.
