QuoScript NaNoWriMo Challenge 2020
Deadline: Mon 16 Nov 2020
November is well-established as National Novel Writing Month (‘NaNoWriMo’). The idea is that you plan to complete a novel in a month, prepare your outline, divide the work required into thirty chunks, one for each day of the month, and – hey presto! – have your masterpiece ready to spring upon an unsuspecting but delighted world by the end of November.

At QuoScript we think that this year even more authors than usual will want to foster their inspiration in an often dispiriting world. So we’re launching the QuoScript NaNoWriMo Challenge!

Provided the entries are of the required standard, two authors will receive a publication contract. Our aim is to publish at least one novel from the Young Adult category and one from the Crime fiction category.

Two runners-up in each category will be offered additional advice and support on how to making their writing more publishable. This will take the form of a telephone “author surgery” call.

All registrants will receive a preliminary feedback on the 10,000 words submitted.

Open to crime writers and young adult fiction writers only. Authors must be UK or USA based.

£30 entrance fee
