The prize was announced at a red-carpet ceremony in Cardiff, on Thursday 7th July. Tyler said, \u201dI&#8217;m really grateful that people have taken to the book in the way they have, particularly in Wales. A lot of readers have told me it reminds them of their own childhood, regardless of where they&#8217;re from. It means a lot to hear that, and also to win an award that&#8217;s picked by those readers. I owe a huge thanks to everyone who voted.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/uniofglos.blog\/creativewriting\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2019\/01\/fireball.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-243\" title=\"Fireball\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/uniofglos.blog\/creativewriting\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2019\/01\/fireball.jpg?resize=160%2C245&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"160\" height=\"245\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>University of Gloucestershire Creative Writing lecturer Tyler Keevil&#8217;s first novel, Fireball, has won the Media Wales Readers\u2019 Prize &#8211; the popular choice for the best English language book published in Wales this year.
