Writersroom talent on awards shortlist
The Tinniswood and Imison radio awards shortlists have been announced for 2008, and we're delighted to see writers and work developed through writersroom are on there. For the Tinniswood, Mark Ravenhill's Yesterday an Incident Occurred was produced by Kate Rowland for the Free Thinking Festival/Radio 3, while Mike Bartlett was first spotted through our unsolicited system. And for the Imison, Stephen Riley's The Birth and Death of Daylight was picked up through our unsolicited system and subsequently produced, while Jack Thorne's Left at the Angel and Laurence Wilson's Tin Man were both developed after they were selected for our 'Sparks' radio scheme in 2006. Fingers crossed we'll have some winners to celebrate when the results are announced in October...

hi Paul - Can you tell me if the feeback on the longlisted applications to the sharps competition has been sent out? Thanks. SF

Hey SF, like you I have spent what feels like an eternity waiting in a state of anxiety to discover if I made the long list.
So I have to take this opportunity to share my pain with you: two days ago I received my Sharps entry from the Royal Mail. I hadn't paid enough postage!! This is despite the idiot bloke in the post office assuring me that a paltry large stamp was enough. The horror!
My only consolation is that I can now live in the vain hope that I didn't get through because I didn't actually enter. Otherwise I surely would have won, ha ha!
Hope you have better luck! (-:
