@prize_novel Feedback was my main incentive to enter but I gained so much more. Perhaps just provide feedback for the top 100 to take the pressure off? Though there is an argument to suggest that it’s the writers who don’t make the top 100 who need the feedback. A difficult decision.

@prize_novel Congratulations to the long listers. Being on the 2023 long list was an incredibly positive experience. I joined a community of generous, talented and supportive writers and our little group is still together, helping and encouraging each other. Good luck to all for 2024.

@saranaidinecox That’s 341 writers who have been given a wonderful opportunity. Be proud and be kind to yourself. And never doubt that there are many of us out there that do care. Sending hugs x

[Marian Smith @DoileyMarian]

@saranaidinecox You should be proud Sara. Without a doubt entering the CNP was the best decision I made as a writer. I was able to join a wonderful community of writers and I learned so much from the excellent feedback, not to mention the summer school. I can’t thank you enough x

@Williamstweet @JerichoWriters Congratulations. Loved your piece and looking forward to reading your novel.

@BuntyBestie Be honest, we only read the comic strips (Asterix The Gaul and The Trigan Empire) and ignored the boring educational bits.

@MsEmilyMorris I fill my own Christmas crackers and always put a £2 lottery ticket in. One day, with luck we may win enough to buy an FT stocking filler.

@VanessaGebbie I loved this book so much, Vanessa. Such beautiful prose. A brilliant achievement. x

[Marian Smith @DoileyMarian]

A great way to support local bookshops and help them survive.

Line of Duty stars Adrian Dunbar & @Vicky_McClure took a break from filming today to tell us that dementia patients ‘must not be left behind this time’ as new Covid restrictions come in. Adrian’s mum has dementia & is in a care home; Vicky presented ‘Our Dementia Choir’ last year
