This post should be named Thank You Dan Purdue because, for the second time, Dan has notified me (via Twitter) I made the listing of another comp. First time was shortlist for Short Fiction - thanks to Tom Vowler and Anthony Caleshu also - and now the Bristol Prize. On top of my AUT win (thanks Dylan Horrocks) I feel really stoked.
My congratulations go out to all the other listees - great to see Ethel Rohan on there - and thanks to the organisers/readers at Bristol.

I'm really chuffed, Rachel - and lovely they posted a highly commended list to give a mention to more names, too.
Congratulations! You are on a roll :)
Thanks, Helen! I fear I may have exhausted the luck now :o :)
Also, I totally have you to thank - it was something you blogged about that inspired the latest one!
Congratulations, Rachel. You are on a roll. Sounds great.
Thank you, Lori :)
Really? Wow, I'm honoured. And I don't think it's luck. It's skill and perserverence and writers' grit :)
P.S. I finally managed to read Alchemy hour. It was very moving. I'm glad you learned to use his paints.
Haha - it'd make you smile, I'm sure, if you read it! And thank you - I do work very hard and I'm glad some of it's paying off before I flake out!
Really pleased you liked Alchemy Hour :)
