Calling all Writers

The New Zealand Society of Authors and Kobo Writing Life are offering an e-publishing prize for two previously unpublished manuscripts. One fiction and one non-fiction manuscript will receive full professional e-publishing treatment. The pieces must be between 30,000-120,000 words in length. They will be judged by a panel of members from Kobo, the New Zealand Society of Authors, and an independent bookseller. Members of the public will be able to vote for their favourite shortlisted manuscripts online and these winners will each receive a free Kobo reader.
