In 2020, three songs, "Live and Let Live" written with Kevin Bennett, "Temporary Time" written with Christine Kerr and "Don't Dance So Fast" written with Kath Stewart, Lee and Paula Bowman were entered into the UK Songwriting Contest. All three songs received 5 star ratings so I'm pretty stoked with that.
