"As Wales' pre-eminent short story writer it's appropriate that the name of Rhys Davies should be attached to the latest contest for works in this much neglected formThe competition, which began in 1991, has encouraged a whole range of new writers to test out how best to manage something that's often more substantial than a poem but nowhere near the long distance of the novel. As culture moves ever towards the swifter and the more concise, we are delighted to support the relaunch of this national competition." Peter Finch, Secretary, Rhys Davies Trust
