This is such an honour! Thank you, Daniel, for the thoughtful and fantastically detailed write-up. You know, I almost didn't publish Skellig because I thought it wouldn't resonate with anyone, but when I did, the number of people who commented on it really surprised me, which encouraged me to submit it here. Oissene is in good company in Round 1 - I'm looking forward to reading all the other stories on this list. Winston, massive thanks to you for organising this too! I see some negativity and vitriol coming out on this platform sometimes (in notes and posts), and it makes me sad. I like to think that THIS is the true heart of Substack: writers reading each other's work and giving honest feedback and encouragement (and a little help with exposure). Congratulations to everyone!
