Thanks to all entrants to this competition and congratulations to John Bunting from Surrey. He won our 'Summer Loving' competition with his entry 'Anything and Everything'.

Andrew's comments about John's entry: I thought 'Anything and Everything' was surprisingly dark and menacing, yet still keeping to the theme. It stayed with me in a way that the others did not.

John has won first prize which is Andrew's book 'Centurionman', and one free entry to our Open Short Story Competition 2016.
