All at Transmission would like to extend our thanks to all of the excellent readers. It was a varied and entertaining night - feedback suggesting that it was a success for both readers and listeners alike. We would also like to thank James Draper and Andrew Biswell at MMU’s Writing School for their help and, of course, Jen Hamilton-Emery at Salt for rallying her writers and coming all the way from Cambridge to offer her support!
