Writing Children's Fiction?
Pushkin Children's to re-run
open submission day
Pushkin Children's Books has announced its second open
submission initiative, following on from the success of the first
round last year, which led to the acquisition of YA title The
Collective by Lindsey Whitlock.
The publisher is once again opening its doors to
submissions for children's books for a 24-hour period. Pushkin hopes
this initiative, led by Sarah Odedina, editor-at-large, will
"provide unpublished writers with a golden opportunity to have
their work seen by a leading figure in the literary world". The
submissions must be for middle-grade readers aged from eight to 12.
The next Open Submission Initiative will take place on 8th January from
00.00pm to 23.59pm. The submission must include a synopsis and the
first 10,000 words, plus a short author bio. Entries should be sent to books@pushkinpress.com with
the subject line 'SARAH ODEDINA OPEN SUBMISSION MATERIAL.'
