We’re excited to
announce our 2023 Writers' Award competition
is officially open for entries from all underrepresented
writers!
The theme for our 10th Awards is ‘X.’ Your
work should respond to the theme, implicitly or explicitly, but
we're looking for quality writing first and foremost. The theme
is a creative prompt, not a requirement. Send us your best work!
Twelve writers in three categories will receive:
This year we
have a new genre for our competition, creative non-fiction. You
can read more about this here.
Our 2023 judges are British
poet Wayne Holloway-Smith, experimental
Nigerian British author
Irenosen Okojie,
and writer, editor and publisher Nina Mingya Powles.
You have until
Sunday 14 May 2023, 11.59 pm to
enter your poetry
(up to 50 lines), fiction or
creative
non-fiction pieces (up to 2000 words).
You can enter online, by email, or by post. Before you
apply, it’s really important that you check our rules and that you’re eligible. We aim to make
it as easy as possible to submit work.
The best way to get a sense of what we’re looking for is by
looking at previous winners’ work. You can do this by purchasing our previous anthologies here.
If you need some tips or advice on perfecting your craft, check
out some of our handy resources here and
you might find our Pathway Guide for Writers helpful
too.
Happy submitting! We look forward to reading your
entries.
