Brit Writers’ Awards 2012 - The Finalists…


The moment you have all been eagerly waiting for is finally here!  
We’re announcing the finalists of the Brit Writers’ Awards 2012!
We were inundated with entries this year.  After six months of reading and considering your work we've finally reached a short-list   The standard of entry has been particularly high and the judges have had a difficult job but we've whittled the entries down.
We’ll be announcing further category finalists over the coming week, starting with Non Fiction, Scriptwriting & Screenplay, Song writing  Novels and Published Writer categories today.  Make sure you visit the site daily in case that’s the day we announce your category!
The overall winners will be announced at the glamorous gala awards evening on December 1st in London.
In the meantime, keep writing.  And make sure you write something worth reading, and if you can’t do that then do something worth writing about.
Keep up the good work!
