The Sophie King Prize

We are pleased to announce The Sophie King Prize. This romantic fiction short story competition aims to discover a great new romance short story. The winning story will be chosen by best-selling novelist and short story writer Sophie King.

The competition is run by women's fiction ebook publisher Corazon Books, which published Sophie's own short story collection, Tales from the Heart, earlier this year (to rave reviews) and a new edition of her novel The School Run, which has reached #1 in the Women Writers and Fiction chart on Amazon.

This free-to-enter competition is open to both published and unpublished writers resident in the UK. The winning story will be recorded by a professional actor, and broadcast from a dedicated online audio player at www.sophieking.info and www.greatstorieswithheart.com.

The winner will also receive a beautiful silver-plated jug and £50 gift voucher courtesy of The Handpicked Collection.

The Sophie King Prize will launch on Monday 12th November in association with National Short Story Week. Entrants must submit a short story of between 2,000 to 2,500 words with a romantic theme. The submissions deadline is January 10th 2013 and the winner will be announced in March 2013. Get the full details and enter the competition!
