The only Novel Writing Competition where the Public are the Judges

Most Novel Writing Competitions are judged by Celebrities, Editors, Publishers, Creative Writing Tutors, etc. But not this one.

A Novel Writing Competition with a Difference

UK Novel Writing Competition is the only one in the world that is judged by the public. £5000 First Prize.

We are the organisers of the UK Short Story Competition which started its the judging process in August.

After the success of the UK Short Story Competition, this competition is based on the same successful model.

The 'X Factor' for writing competitions.

The public decides who wins.

Worldwide entries are welcome. Self-published submissions are welcome.

The ONLY restriction is that your submission must not have been published by a publisher. That's it.

  • If it's on your blog, it's okay.
  • If you are represented by an agent, it's ok.
  • If it's on Amazon or any other e-book retailer, it's okay.


We can't be fairer than that.

We have over 9,293 registered judges from the UK Short Story Competition just waiting to see your work.
