Editorial - Issue 11:03

Welcome to Issue 11:03 of Perilous Adventures. We're delighted to be introducing you, in this issue, to the three joint winners of the 2011 Perilous Adventures Short Story Competition. This annual compeititon is such a thrill for us, as story after story floods in. As always, this year we enjoyed reading all of the stories, and found it a challenge to come up with a list of just three winning entries.

We hope you enjoy reading the winning stories as much as we enjoyed discovering them.

This issue also includes a wonderful interview with Mark Tredinnick. Mark is a thoughtful and engaging writer, teacher and interviewee. Sandra Hogan's interview draws him out on family, writing, poetry, landscape and a range of other issues

And, of course, some reviews, and tips. We hope you enjoy this issue!

warm wishes
