One of the completed Million Eyes short stories, entitled Rachel Can See, has been longlisted in the annual InkTears short story competition.
Whether it will be shortlisted and eventually published remains to be seen, but it means Rachel Can See is getting a little bit closer to publication.

InkTears is a prestigious short story competition with a £1,000 cash prize for the winner. Winners, runners-up and highly-commended authors are also offered the possibility of publishing a collection of their short stories through InkTears, which is a great opportunity for new writers. The word limit when I entered the contest last year was 3,000 words and the closing date was November 30th. It was £6 to enter.
