Anastasia Dubinina Scores Dual Wins at Creativitys UK - Stein Arts Awards for Genre-Defying “Anonymous Letters”

London, United Kingdom May 2, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - Speculative-fiction author Anastasia Dubinina has clinched two new accolades in rapid succession: the Creativitys UK Award for April 2025 and the juried Stein Arts Award, both honouring her boundary-bending novel Anonymous Letters. The Creativitys UK jury praised the work for weaving chilling suspense from everyday anxieties, while Stein Arts called it a triumph of form-breaking narrative.

These wins extend Dubininas growing trophy shelf. Last year, she secured the 2024 Cultural Russia Award for Literature for the same title, cited for its profound psychological depth and masterful storytelling. Earlier this month, her novella draft took second place in the Galactic Season Literary Competition (Prose), announced on 20 Apr 2025.

Fiction is a correspondence with strangerssometimes they reply in the shape of awards, Dubinina notes. Im honoured that Anonymous Letters resonates across cultures and juries.
