I am particularly excited that Saoirse developed this story by taking advantage of the unique characteristics of Textnovel: publishing new chapters in serial form and getting reader input on the direction of the story as it unfolded. Partly because of this approach, the characters are well-developed and interesting, their voices are unique and compelling and the plot is exciting. We are very happy to have such a great 1st Prize Winner."
