#loveatfirstwrite shortlist!

So a while ago you may have remembered I had a post about the #Loveatfirstwrite competition, this was hosted by Corvus at Atlantic Books and you have to send in your stories. 

I have just been contacted about who has been shortlisted and I really wanted to share this with you! 

So taken from their website:






Following an impressive number of entries to the Love At First Write competition, Corvus and Lovereading.co.uk are delighted to announce that they have selected six for the shortlist. Each of these entries stood out to the readers as having an original and interesting initial romantic encounter, as well a distinctive voice and compelling plot that made them all want to keep reading. The shortlisted authors are:

Cage the Minute by C R Harvey

Glitter Red Shoes and Sky Blue Gingham by Anna Mansell

How to Get Ahead in Television by Sophie Cousens

Millie in the Middle by Liz Eeles

The Salon by Rosie Lee

Who Does He Think He Is? by Emily Kerr

These entries are now with the panel of expert judges: Maddie West (Corvus Editorial Director & Chair of the Judges), Sarah Broadhurst (Lovereading Lead Reviewer), Elisabeth Gifford (author of The Secrets of the Sea House) and Lindsey Mooney (Kobo Vendor Manager, UK & Ireland) and the winner will be announced at the end of the month.

Corvus would like to thank all the writers who sent in such imaginative and entertaining entries and wish them all the best of luck with their future careers as novelists.


Please make sure you check back as I am sure you are going to want to know who the winner is. 

Thanks so much for stopping by to read this post.
