COMMONWEALTH WRITERS PRIZE

I had the great privilege of being one of the judges for these awards for several years.
In case you missed this year's shortlist announced last week here is a link to the site - 2007 Commonwealth Writers Prize Shortlist.

Wonderful to see that there are three New Zealand entries in the Best Book category and two in the Best First Book category. Congratulations to James George, Lloyd Jones, Damien Wilkins, Paul Shannon and Carl Nixon.
The next hurdle is to win the regional prize and so gain entry to the international final. Good luck boys.
