After much deliberation, Engen Books is proud to announce the winner of the September 2020 Kit Sora Flash Fiction Photography Contest: Ali House with the story, A Darkness Within!
A native Newfoundlander, House is a graduate of the Fine Arts program at Sir Wilfred Grenfell College (MUN). She currently resides in Halifax, Nova Scotia, where she works in arts administration and spends more time than a person should in and around theaters.
House is an avid traveler and foodie, and uses her adventures for her inspiration when she writes.
In addition to her first novel The Six Elemental, House is a prolific short story writer, with stories appearing in Bluenose Paradox, Unexpected Stories, Fantasy from the Rock, Chillers from the Rock, Sci-Fi from the Rock and Gathering Storm Magazine.
We had two judges for this contest:
Melissa Wong is a librarian, copyeditor, freelance journalist and published author who loves to write stories. Her work was recognized when she received the 2017 Atlantic Journalism Award. To become a writer, she earned a BA (Hons) from MUN and a journalism diploma from CNA.
