Henrietta Branford Competition
The Henrietta Branford Writing Competition is held annually for young people in conjunction with the prestigious Branford Boase Award for debut children's fiction.
The competition is open to any young writer under the age of 19. Six winners are invited to the celebration party in London at which the Branford Boase Award is given. There they can meet authors, editors, publishers, agents, and other professionals in this field. Entrants must complete a story begun by last year's winner, Frances Hardinge, author of Fly by Night, and submit it by Friday 25th May.
Full details and the opening paragraph by Frances Hardinge are available by clicking on the link below or by visiting the Boddington library.
