We are thrilled to announce the (longish) shortlist for our Remember the Rainbows competition!

We thoroughly enjoyed every single piece. We were entranced by fantastical fiction, intrigued by poignant poetry, and wowed by fearless non-fiction. It was a privilege to read your writing and the next stage is going to demand some difficult decisions! The good news is that anyone not chosen for the anthology will be invited to publish their piece in the Babble litmag.

Thank you to everyone who submitted and all those who share our posts and support our efforts. We couldn’t do this without you.

Now, without further delay, we present the Remember the Rainbows shortlist:
