WINNER
Julienne by Sommer Marsden
Judge’s comments: Exhilerating and undeniably hot, Sommer’s intense story of a stale relationship revived at the point of a knife makes for gripping reading. The reader is overcome with a mix of fear and lust as the story unfolds; shock mixes with curiosity and arousal. This is a beautifully written story dealing with complex emotions and it does a sterling job of illustrating the theme of transgression.

RUNNER UP
A Lover In The House Of Spies by Alicia Night Orchid
Judge’s comments: Cue the James Bond music – only 007 was never this dirty. Through a series of flashbacks and vignettes, we discover the twin stories of a mother and her daughter, both searching for fulfilment amid secrecy and lies. Oh, and there’s a lot of the cool secret agent stuff to boot. The story works on numerous levels and leaves the reader with a lingering sense of mystery.

THIRD PRIZE
Surprise Me by Louisa Harte
Judge’s comments: Public sex is always a thrilling idea and a great subject for a story dealing with transgression. Louisa’s writing is a pleasure to read and she shows a deft hand at ramping up the erotic tension.

Beyond the top 13 there were another 8 or so stories that came very close to getting into the shortlist. It really was tough deciding who to leave out and I must admit I didn’t finalise the list until the very last minute because it was so hard to choose the winners.

Of course, there were plenty of entries by writers who really need to think about another hobby. Sometimes it amazes me that some people will enter a short story competition when they don’t seem to have any grasp of spelling, grammar or paragraphs. I think some people assume that stories about sex don’t have to be terribly readable. Thankfully the number of porny, blow-by-blow sex descriptions were few and far between this year.

In any case, there it is, done and dusted. I’m so proud that For The Girls has been running this competition for the last four years, encouraging top quality writers to create sizzling erotic fiction just for women.

For The Girls will be publishing one story from the winning entries each week until the beginning of November.
