I am delighted to say that I have won the Barbara Pym Short Story Award for 2025 run by the Barbara Pym Society.
The stories had to have some reference to Barbara or her characters and I chose to imagine another life for someone from Crampton Hodnet, one of my favourite of her books. For those of you who read her, you will guess which character when I tell you that the title of the story is 'All Change at Leamington Lodge'.
It's such fun taking an existing character and changing her life! The story will be published in a forthcoming issue of Green Leaves, the newsletter of the Barbara Pym Society, and thereafter on their website.
Last year, I had a story in an anthology of stories previously placed the the BP Society competition. You can buy it here.
