Writing Award

Welcome To Our Writing Award

Launch your writing career by entering your completed and unpublished manuscript
for our prestigious panel of literary agents and publishers to judge the winners!

The Page Turner Awards, sponsored by ProWritingAid, will publish one writer and possibly many more!
This means that at least one writer is guaranteed to be published!
And possibly more will be published via the many literary agents and publishers on our judging panel.

The Page Turner Writing Award will be the best story the judges choose from ALL the entries. You only have to submit your first ten pages but your manuscript must be completed (and unpublished) in case our judges want to see the full novel. The judges are looking for stories that are unpublished yet capture their attention in only the first 10 pages, thus a page-turner. All fiction and non-fiction genres are welcome!

SUBMISSIONS CLOSE 30 JUNE!
