After much deliberation Simon, best-selling author, and programming chair of the 2008 Festival today judged the winner to be Sarah Netherclift for her story:
Expiry Date: Cruellest month, April. Although, technically he didn’t die until July.
The standard was so high, Simon also picked out five other stories from the adult competition for a special mention:
Grabbed, stabbed, shopped, copped, lied, denied, squealed, appealed, failed, jailed. (By MS Harris)
Take my car Joe said. Sue was never seen again. (By Yvonne Otter)
Going Postal: The knife glinted. Sometimes people just crack, said Miss Marple. (by Donna Mail)
Marital Problem: Cynical Wife, husband with knife, serious strife, husband got life. (By Geoff Newton)
Widower killed, not by seven suspects, but by dead wife. (By Phil Cook)
