First Chapter competition, deadline midnight tonight

 The deadline is midnight tonight for the Retreat West First Chapter competition, details below:


It's deadline day!


It's your last chance to submit to our annual First Chapter Competition, which is being judged by Sam Jordison of Galley Beggar Press. The winners get detailed feedback on their novel openings, synopsis and submission cover letter from award-winning indie publishers.

You have until 1 minute to midnight UK time to send your novel opening to be in with a chance. Submit your chapter here.

We're looking forward to reading all of the entries and you never know you could join our previous winners and shortlistees and get a publishing contract. Laura Laakso and Diana Cambridge both got picked up by indie press, Louise Walters Books, after being shortlisted in this competition.

If you're writing much shorter stories, our latest Monthly Micro Fiction Competition prompt is going live tomorrow so keep an eye on the website.

Don't forget check out our new online community as we have got a brilliant calendar of events planned to help you take your flash, short story and novel writing to the next level. There's already lots of people there too having great conversations!

Happy writing! With love from all of us at Retreat West x
