'Makorongo's War' wins the ACM novel writing contest 2017



'Makorongo's War' by Sophie Neville has won first prize in the Athanatos Christian Ministeries' novel writing contest, awarded at the Athanatos Festival in Greenwood WI, USA on 3rd August 2017

Anthony Horvath, director of ACM, wrote to say, 'This year's contest was extraordinarily hard to judge.  I am informed by my judges that we had several very excellent manuscripts that didn't even make it to the semi-finalist stage.'

It is a huge honour for a novel set in East Africa to have won such a prestigious prize in the USA and thanks go to all who have helped bring it to this stage in its development.
