Update on the E.M. Fletcher Writing Competition Judges

We had a change to our judging panel for this year’s E.M. Fletcher Writing Competition. Originally, the panel included Associate Professor Emmett Stinson, Beverley Richardson, and Therese Lynch. However, due to personal reasons, Professor Stinson had to step down in late July. We are pleased to announce that Dr. Adam Ouston, Lecturer in English & Writing at the University of Tasmania, has stepped in to join the judging panel. Dr Ouston, along with Beverley and Therese, will bring their combined expertise to evaluate this year's entries. Read more about our judges [here].
