Thank you so much Tania for mentioning my article—I’m truly honoured! It sounds like you’re on such an exciting journey with your writing. I love how you’ve embraced the process of reworking and refining your story—persistence like that is what sets great writers apart. And while not making it to the first round of the Ritchell Prize can be disappointing, I really admire your perspective. The fact that it pushed you back into fiction is such a win in itself, and it’s clear you’re making amazing progress. Keep going, especially with that epilogue!
It’s also great to hear you’re finding community on Threads. Having that space to connect with other writers and share insights is so valuable. I’m cheering you on as you get closer to completing your story—I can’t wait to see what’s next for you!
Tania, what an honour to be included in your inspiring reads, thank you ☺️ And in the company of so much good writing including your own. I’m so glad the metaphor of the village resonated with you and I love the quote you chose. It’s something I reflect on often and so grateful for.
