Here’s John picture of the ReLit Winners 2010, Kenneth Harvey and the new bearers of the rings: Stuart Ross for short fiction: Buying Cigarettes for the Dog (Freehand), Gillian Jerome for poetry: Red Nest, (Nightwood) and Michael Kenyon for novel: The Beautiful Children, (Thistledown).
The venue (The Barley Mow) was packed last night and each person who came got to hear lovely music of John Lavery and samples of the winning books. And there was free food, free drink and a free book or two or few of the short-listed titles and other submitted works. A good start for an opening night of the fall writers festival.
