THIS WAS THE YEAR THAT WE WROTE

For those of you who don’t read the Daily Telegraph and haven’t been following Louise Doughty’s “Novel in a Year” column, I’m posting details of a competition she’s running this month.

Write & Win

To enter The Daily Telegraph “Novel in a Year” competition, send the first 1,000 words of your novel plus a single page synopsis either by email as attachments to novelcompetition@telegraph.co.uk or by post to 111 Buckingham Palace Road, London SW1W ODT.

The closing date for applications is February 1, 2007. The names of the 50 shorrtlisted authors will be announced in the paper on May 5, 2007. They will receive a personalised copy of Louise Doughty’s book of the column, A Novel in A year. The names of the five winners will be announced on May 26, 2007.

The prize is lunch at The Daily Telegraph with Louise Doughty and the other judges, Sam Leith, the literary editor of The Daily Telegraph, Louise Doughty’s literary agent, Antony Harwood and Rochelle Venables, commissioning editor at Simon & Schuster.

There are, as far as I can see, no rules about not being previously published.
