WILLIAM JARRETT (VJ6) has won the prestigious short story competition run as part of the H G Wells Festival. William`s story `The Invaders from Within` beat off strong competition from nine other finalists (including three other Harvey students). In a prizegiving ceremony at the Grand Hotel on the Leas, the judges praised the quality and imaginativeness of William`s entry. The picture shows William receiving the cheque for £1000 from Professor Dominic Wells, H G Wells` great grandson and Mr Reg Turnill, a Sandgate resident who met and interviewed the writer in the 1930`s! The competition attracted a great deal of interest and received many entries from writers of all ages, so Will`s achievement is all the more impressive. A big well done to William and to everyone else who took part.
