Usually I Decide On What It Is

All Prizes Have A Role, If They Are Run With Integrity And With A Clear Focus On Reading And Quality Writing. I Don't Think Any Of Them Is Necessary, But They All Play An Incredibly Important Role In Building A Body Of Literature, In Introducing New Authors To New Readers, And Extending Reading.

Free And Fair Access To Books - To Reading - Is A Right And One We Should Fight For.

History Is Written By The Victors, The Strongest, The Most Determined. Truth Is Found Most Often In The Silence, In The Quiet Places.

For When All Else Is Done, On­ly Words Re­main. Words En­dure.

Love - True Love - Is A Precious Thing. It Is Painful, Uncomfortable, Makes Fools Of Us All, But It Is What Breathes Meaning And Color And Purpose Into Our Lives.
