Oh thank you, Matt! I've just seen this - and double thanks because the story was written for your fabulous feedback course a few months ago!
oh you found it, thanks! I spent hours looking for it :((
oh thanks, Matt! Is there any way we can find the judge's report for that competition?
oh no!! I can't find my winning story from 2021 or my longlisted ones!
You're most welcome, Matt! I love your brilliant courses and they should all be fully-booked all year round. I'll still remember the first one I signed up for way back in 2021...
My favourite word at the moment is Iktsuarpok, which is also the title of my forthcoming poetry collection (2024)... It's an Inuit word which means 'The feeling of anticipation while waiting for someone to arrive, often leading to intermittently going outside to check for them.'
