Topic: New Writing - submissions
New Writing 14 submissions open now. How to submit work:
Writers from the UK and the Commonwealth are encouraged to submit short stories, poetry, essays or extracts from work in progress. The deadline for submissions is 30 June 2005.
The work must be unpublished and not be due for publication until at the earliest January 2007, and the author should be willing to give the British Council electronic rights for 2 years following publication, plus translation rights and other sub-rights to be confirmed. There is no limit on the length of pieces, but constraints of space mean that longer items will stand less chance of acceptance. Submissions should be sent in triplicate, clearly typed, double-spaced, page numbered and with name and address on each piece to:
New Writing
Film and Literature Department
British Council
10 Spring Gardens
London SW1A 2BN
New Writing 14 will be published by Granta in September 2006.
About New Writing:
New Writing is an annual anthology of new literature in English from the UK and the Commonwealth, subsidised and administered by the British Council and published by Picador in association with the Arts Council of England. It provides one of the few opportunities in the UK for unknown writers without an agent to get published by a leading fiction publisher.
