Launch of Discoveries 2027
Deadline: Mon 11 Jan 2027
Discoveries is the Women's Prize Trust's transformative flagship writer development programme, run in partnership with Audible, the Curtis Brown Group, and the Curtis Brown Creative writing school.
Now in its seventh year, Discoveries is a crucial resource for inspiring and supporting new talent to write their first novels.
Free to enter, unagented and unpublished women writers in the UK, the Republic of Ireland or the Channel Islands are invited to submit the first 10,000 words of a novel for adult readers for the chance to receive an offer of literary agent representation and a bursary of £5,000.
This is alongside access to a bespoke creative writing course, personalised mentorships and workshops, practical advice and industry insight, a curated programme of outreach events and online content, as well as becoming part of a highly supportive and active writing community.
The 2027 judging panel will be chaired by Kate Mosse CBE FRSL, the international bestselling writer and Founder Director of the Women’s Prize for Fiction and the Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction.
