If you’re aiming to dive into writing That Novel in November – here’s yet another incentive: a £10,000 prize for previously unpublished writer: the Deborah Roger’s Foundation.

Deborah was a literary agent, and so this prize continues her life work of supporting new, emerging writers.  The entry level isn’t too strict about not having published before – the odd short story in a magazine or even poetry does not exclude you.

Read the rules.  Thank you, Deborah Rogers.  As someone commented, even if you don’t win the award, you will have written most of a book, to qualify.  Win-win!
