I can't believe I made the shortlist for Screenplay (book adaptation needed). It's such a boost.

Congrats to everyone - those who were brave enough to submit their work for consideration, to the finalists, the long-lists, and to the short-lists. Congratulations to everyone!

I'm overwhelmed, and so honored to be on the shortlist for screenwriting/book adaptation needed with so many talented writers. Congratulations to all who've made finalist, longlist, and to all my fellow shortlisters. Thank you to all the judges and to Ken and Paula for providing this wonderful opportunity. I'm just gonna go do my happy dance now.

I totally agree with Michele above, I am still reeling with shock and to get this far means so much to me and I too thank Paula and Ken for this opportunity.

As well as congratulating all the other finalist shortlisters. I’d like to send my congratulations to the longlist finalists too. I was pretty excited to reach that point as well. so I’m raising a glass to everyone. Well done!

Heartiest congratulations to everyone who made the shortlists. I'm proud to have had 3 of my books in the finals and to have reached a longlist with one. I'm honoured to be in such talented company and wish everyone the very best of luck, both with their writing and in this and other literary competitions.

I just wanted to drop in and congratulate everyone who has made all the various (and multiple) shortlists. I haven't quite wrapped my head around being on one of them yet. This is absolutely wild in the best and most flattering way. Thank you Paula, Ken, and everyone involved with the Page Turner Awards. ❤

Thank you to the Page Turner judges for shortlisting my book. I expected to get nowhere as a first time author but have managed to sneak through to the shortlisting stage.

Well done to all the other writers longlisted and shortlisted for all prizes and look forward to the ceremony in October

Maria Sanchez Tue, 12/10/2021 - 11:25

Honored and thrilled beyond words to be included in the shortlist!! I am so grateful to Ken, Paula, the judges, and everyone at Page Turner Awards!!

I wish the very best to all the writers that have presented their work to Page Turner Awards, congratulate those that have placed throughout the contest, and also those that have not, for it is a long and winding road to have one's work acknowledged. We must persevere to make it happen, even though at times our impetus might wane.
