Herrad’s story The Accident has been longlisted for the Raymond Carver Short Story Awards. Her children’s story The Wind’s Bride won third prize in the London Writers’ Competition. Her novel 'Caratacus' Daughter', set in first-century Iron Age Britain and Ancient Rome, received a grant from Academi, the Welsh literature promotion agency.[8]
