That’s 100,497 words for Ed and Amanda to read. For reference, that’s about the same number of words as Harper Lee's 'To Kill a Mockingbird'.

Our January winner putting her best real estate ad writing skills to good use!
But will her story sell, or will it fail to hit the reserve?
Only time will tell...
With a tremor of breathless anticipation, she delicately pressed the 'submit' button, releasing her humble yet heartfelt tale into the vast, boundless ether, fervently wishing it luck as it embarked upon its mystical voyage through the literary cosmos

Amanda just hit 'Send' on a VERY EXCITING email, the subject of which we will eventually reveal... but which for now will remain a MYSTERY.
Nothing to see here - go listen to the daredevil episode!

We're just as anxious as you are for the release of the April 2024
#NotQuiteWriteWrize
longlist and winner announcements!
Ed is busting his arse while Amanda cheers ineffectually from the sidelines.
Who will WIN? Do we have any hot favourites from the forum?

The shortlist battle is shaping up to be bloody this round.
5 batches down and 6 to go! There’s a battle Royale going off in the private NQW chat because we each have a clear frontrunner and they are NOT the same story.
I’m hoping the remaining batches solve the problem by offering a new contender, although I fear Ed may be in love…
