Writing Competitions

Two different organisations are calling for entries to their literary competitions.

Verbivoracious Press, based in Glasgow and Singapore, is seeking submissions for two projects – essays and manuscript submissions and the closing date is 31 May 2016.

Describing itself as a publisher of “exploratory fiction from around the world”, the essays can be scholarly or creative non-fiction.

The manuscript submission is for publication in Verbivoracious Press’s new fiction series and they state their preference for “ambitious, off-beat playful fiction informed or inspired by the avant garde”.

See the Verbivoracious website for more information.

Carers UK – the national organisation for unpaid family carers – is also organising a writing competition with a first prize of £150 in high street vouchers. The charity is seeking poems and short stores on all aspects of caring – the joys, challenges and complex emotions that come with looking after a loved one.

The closing date is 31 July and the charity will be producing an anthology of the winning and commended poems and stories.

​See the Carers UK website for further details.
