This year's nominees and winner have been announced! We had the pleasure of presenting the DIEGESIS Award at the Solent Film Awards (SoFiAs) last night. It is an award that acknowledges demonstrable creativity and critical thinking in the practical skill of film and television writing and so many impressive writers have been involved with the magazine this year that it was incredibly difficult narrowing down the shortlist, let alone deciding the winner.
The three nominees - Brennan Backs, Hannah Lake and George Lee - have demonstrated a commendable commitment to the development of their writing this last year in both their writing for the magazine and in their critical writing during their undergraduate studies. Their writing is continually a pleasure to read and their writing reveals a clear and engaging voice. Congratulations to the winner of the Diegesis Award 2018 - Hannah Lake - and the two runners up: Brennan Backs and George Lee. Be sure to check out their writing and keep your eyes peeled for the great writing that is sure to come in the future.
