Thrilled to see Jacqueline Houston, a winner of the New Writing North's A Writing Chance competition and my mentee, published in The New Statesman. Jacq's writing is witty, irreverent, fierce and surprising and she has so many stories to tell! (Also: someone give her a dating column!)

The New Statesman Jacqueline Houston for #AWritingChance: 'Face down in this Scargill-scarred landscape, it’s suddenly apparent that we too are mere prey in proletariat form.
