Once again SCBWI British Isles plans to help fresh, new voices in children’s literature find agents and publishers through its Undiscovered Voices anthology project.
Join us for an online panel discussion with this year’s Undiscovered Voices judges.
This free event will tell you everything you need to know to enter the competition – plus offer advice and tips on how to hook editors and agents from the opening of your novel.
Authors from the eight previous anthologies have received publishing contracts for more than 440 books and have been nominated for or won more than 200 literary prizes, including the Carnegie Medal, Waterstone’s Children’s Book Prize, Branford Boase Award, Blue Peter Award, the SCBWI Crystal Kite Award, and more than 30 regional awards.
