Now in its sixth year, the Cuffer Prize is sponsored by The Telegram and Creative Book Publishing in St. John's. It showcases some of the best short fiction from Newfoundland and Labrador writers, both new and established. Entries in 2012 touch on numerous themes — relationships in their death throes, the loss of a parent of child, impending Armageddon, the strong pull of addiction and the perils of the sea. The stories were reviewed by Cuffer Prize judges Ramona Dearing, Joan Sullivan and Russell Wangersky, and selected by editor Pam Frampton. The Cuffer Anthology Volume V includes exquisitely crafted stories from the top three prize winners in 2012: Wanda Nolan for Nancy Drew, Joshua Goudie for Satsuma and Cigarettes and Janet Kelly for Bliss. They were chosen from the more than 150 entries for the Cuffer Prize. A portion of the proceeds from each anthology is donated to Literacy Newfoundland and Labrador.
