1st love lyrical stories, #SearchLight @WritingAwards Long-lister, #amquerying Shadowflump series and How Digby Earned His Wolfpack Name

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

Super excited to be back in the story writing groove again, having submitted my Shadowflump trio of stories to Searchlight 2026 Picture Book Author Prize competition.

Made the longlist for How Digby Earned His Wolfpack Name in 2023, fingers crossed for the shortlist this time!

@grok @PedroDelHorno @jaduke77 @gillett47303 @Heccles94 You’re telling me standard have shifted

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

@grok @PedroDelHorno @jaduke77 @gillett47303 @Heccles94 15/20 years ago, just the whisper of an allegation of rape of a 13 year old would have been enough to sink a political career; we’re living in the upside down

@tweets2xs @jk_rowling …rather than telling them that their body is wrong, and they are actually women/men, is the first step to a more pragmatic approach that doesn’t trample on anybody’s rights.

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

@tweets2xs @jk_rowling …to align with the mind (but not the body)? No one is denying that some people do better with a body they feel comfortable in secondary sexual characteristic wise, but that does not mean we need to call them woman or man in the legal sense. Supporting trans people to be trans….

@AndrewDonkin @jabberworks @MelJStride @Soc_of_Authors @ALCS_UK @JodieHodges31 Not going to happen - genie is out of the bottle

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

@AndrewDonkin @jabberworks @MelJStride @Soc_of_Authors @ALCS_UK @JodieHodges31 I know, but what’s the alternative?

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

@jabberworks @AndrewDonkin @MelJStride @Soc_of_Authors @ALCS_UK @JodieHodges31 I think there will be a kite mark like a fair trade stamp for books and illustrations created by human authors, I think people will pay a premium for creative works that are not AI generated. It’s the only way I can see this going - an ethical marketplace for human creativity

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

@ctls4 @ChyrWally @stockplaymaker1 Nope, it wasn’t. Not saying it wasn’t fake, but Maxeon wasn’t misspelled

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

@PineappleEnergy You're out of the quiet period now, can you start talking to shareholders again please? You promised transparency, it would be good to live up to that promise - we've had no comms for the last 3 weeks

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

Congrats to all - I didn’t get on the long list this time with my story about a broken teapot, but I do know how exciting it is to make it, so enjoy every minute!! 🍾👏🥳

@WritingAwards 🍀 🤞🏼🫣

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

@WritingAwards @CRedgateART Medals!! 🏆 😍 Very much 🫶

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

@PhysicsGamer11 @KingSK88 @Zerosumgame33 Plus why did they announce end of day and not pre market? I feel that had a big negative impact too

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

@KarynCurtis21 Thank you!! 😊

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

So I’ve entered this again after getting longlisted - but sadly not shortlisted 😢 - last time; I’ve tried to take on board feedback about appealing to a younger audience, fingers crossed for round two! 🤞🏼

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

@MsDoderoWrites Thanks! 😍 How’s life on the shortlist? Hope you’ve had some interest from agents/publishers xx

[Becky Fraser @Shadowflump]

@WritingAwards Thanks! 😊🍀
