Jane was honoured to be invited by The Lonely Crowd’s creator and Editor, John Lavin, to guest-edit edition thirteen which was published in August 2022.

It was the picture: sepia tones, a little faded around the edges, a young woman sitting on a chair with her three sons close by, at the Henkel Photographic Studio in a studio in New Jersey. It was the only image I’d ever seen of my great-aunt, Ellen, and her dark, brown eyes looked straight to camera and seemed to will me to tell her story. Or at least my fictionalised version of her story, now told in my debut novel, Advent.

Jane is honoured to win this award for her debut novel.
