GRANSNET WRITING COMPETITION

Gransnet is looking for fiction by women writers over the age of forty who are residents of the UK or Ireland.

"Our recent survey revealed that almost half of you think there are not enough books featuring middle-aged or older female characters. In response to that, we're delighted to announce that, together with HQ, an imprint of HarperCollins, we are launching a fiction writing competition for women writers over the age of 40. We will specifically be looking for stories featuring a leading character aged over 40."

Deadline is September 30, 2019.
