The announcement was shared by HS Publications along with a formal congratulatory note recognising Dey's contribution to the writing community. “We sincerely appreciate your dedication, passion, and hard work in the field of writing,” the organisers noted, adding that his efforts and creativity were “truly commendable.”
A Competitive Field of Over 17,000 Entries
The scale of participation in the Best Pensmith Awards 2026 underlines the significance of Dey's placement. With 17,603 submissions received nationwide, securing a spot inside the Top 100 already marks a notable achievement, and finishing at 19th position places his entry among the very best of that shortlist.
HS Publications, which runs under the tagline “Publish your way to success,” confirmed that the recognition follows Dey's participation in the event and is being communicated as part of the official results announcement. The organisers extended their thanks for his participation, describing the recognition as an acknowledgement of the time and effort put into his craft.
The Winning Entry
The piece submitted by Dey for the competition is a reflective poem exploring themes of love, vulnerability and the emotional risks that come with matters of the heart. Written in a conversational, questioning tone, it speaks directly to its subject, weighing beauty, compassion and the consequences of playing carelessly with someone's feelings.
The poem's closing lines carry a note of caution, reminding the reader that “if you play with someone's heart,” the consequences of being found out can outlast the moment. It is this blend of emotional honesty and lyrical simplicity that appears to have resonated with the judging panel.
What the Top 100 Pensmith Recognition Represents
The Best Pensmith Awards is positioned as a platform to identify and celebrate emerging and established writing talent from across the country. A Top 100 placement, drawn from tens of thousands of entries, is intended to spotlight writers whose work demonstrates strong creative merit, clarity of voice and emotional depth.

HS Publications has indicated that the results are being shared with all participants as part of the event's official communication, along with appreciation for the time and creativity invested by every entrant.
