Probably your vcl_recv should look like this-

sub vcl_recv {
    if (req.http.host == "stg.ncwrite.com") {
       set req.backend_hint = stgncwrite;
       }
    if (req.http.host == "stg.pegwritingscholar.com"){
       set req.backend_hint = stgpegwritingscholar;
       }
    return (hash);
    }

Also in my humble opinion its dangerous to use DNS names for backends. If DNS is slow/down then your backends won't be reachable. Better to use IP address when defining host and send the Host header from client or set in VCL
