Young Muslim Writers Awards

Young inspiring writers from around the country are once again invited to submit creative, interesting and original entries to the Young Muslim Writer's Awards

The deadline for receiving entries is on Monday 7th of March 2011

The judges will announce the winners for each category at a prestigious, invitation-only presentation ceremony to be held at the Institute of English Studies, University of London in June 2011.

Now in its 5th year, the Muslim Writers Awards is widely acknowledged by writers and professionals from the publishing world as the most recognised, exciting and credible platform for Muslim writers of all ages.

The list of successes continues to grow; the youngest person to sign a publishing contract is Tahmina Hadi who will be launching her first novel in April after winning the 14-16 Best Short Story Award at the 2010 Young Muslim Writers Awards.
