The event, held at RIBA in central London on 22nd November, saw a strong turn-out of book trade teams with Waterstone's, the London Book Fair, Random House, Faber, Hachette, Orion, Little, Brown, Penguin, Nielsen Book and the Association of Author's Agents all entering. The Times, Prospect and the Independent represented Fleet Street.
The fundraising event raised £6,000 to help oppressed writers around the world. It was organised by Colman Getty and hosted by writer and comedian David Baddiel.
The winners received 10 signed bottles of Andrew Motion's Poet Laureate sherry.
