All those who appreciate humor and are ready to submit their works in prose or verse to the jury - act right now. There is still time to select works or write them from scratch. Deadline March 25, 2018, prizes: diplomas, bonus and cash reward.

Let's try to conditionally divide the contests into three groups:
- prestigious literary awards: "Big Book"," Booker "," National Bestseller ", genre awards such as" Wanderer ", etc.
- competitions held by publishers, such as "Manuscript of the Year";
- online competitions.

Prestigious Literary Awards

Prestigious literary awards are designed for publishing authors, have a solid prize pool, beautiful prizes to put on the shelf, and attract wide media attention. Even getting into the long list is already happiness and a reason to proudly announce it on the cover of the book. However, no award guarantees success with the reader.

It is very difficult to nominate yourself for such a competition, even if you published a book at your own expense - publishers, thick magazines or a panel of judges most often have the right to nominate.

Therefore, you can forget about these awards and calm down. There is one of two things: either it happens or it doesn't happen, nothing depends on our efforts.

Exception - "Debut". But it has drawbacks - it is a premium for authors under 25-35 years old.

Competitions held by publishers

These contests are mainly aimed at emerging writers and give them a great chance to jumpstart their writing career and get some initial boost.

There are no prizes in them or they are purely symbolic, but they have one big, just a huge plus.

These are, by definition, fair competitions. The organizer, who is also the publisher, is vitally interested in finding new talented authors, so each text is given attention. As far as I understand, such awards have two main tasks. Firstly, the promotion of the author - attracting the attention of the media and attracting the attention of readers with the inscription on the cover "Winner of such and such an award." Therefore, only the text determines everything. There is no point in giving impetus to a mediocre text - it will be a waste of time and money. No matter how much you kick a hedgehog, it won't fly like a bird. Secondly, the fee of a novice author in our time cannot serve as a more or less significant incentive for writing new works. But this recognition and moral support - they play their role.

Finally, this is one of the few chances to publish a non-format work.

My personal experience very positive. Winning the Blogbuster competition allowed me to meet some great editors. Thanks to these acquaintances, my story was published, and the novel did not lie by itself for months, but was read immediately, out of turn. But you need to understand that the victory of one text in the competition does not guarantee the publication of another, the only thing you can count on is attention to your application.

Then the novel became the winner of another publishing competition - "Manuscript of the Year", thanks to which I already have something to fill in the "Media about the novel" page on the book's website.

Online contests

Online contests are just the case when participation is more important than winning. This will allow the novice author to save some time, because he will not step on the well-known rake.

Of course, not a single editor will take seriously your comment that the text won first place in the "Afftor, write escho" contest held by the "Young Star of Literature" portal.

The prize most often becomes a beautiful picture, which says "Winner of such and such a competition." You can post it on your blog or website.

The main thing that a novice author needs from an online competition is reviews, reviews and reviews. The chance of getting a review, or at least a detailed review from the editor of the publishing house that turned you down, tends to zero. For the most part, blog readers will either write "Thank you", or "Drink yada", or remain silent.

If you're lucky enough to make it to the finals of an online contest, sometimes you can get a review from a pro. If not, you will get feedback from people who are interested in literary theory, read a lot and share their impressions in detail. It can be very useful to pay attention to your mistakes, shortcomings and virtues. At a minimum, even your worst story will be read to the end by someone and will poke your nose at least in one of the reasons for failure. This is a kind of school.

It must be understood that strong "middle peasants" often win in online competitions - stories that are understandable and interesting to most judges, and also equally satisfying male and female tastes. In addition, long-standing competitions have their own established notions of a good story. Those. you have to understand that the judges of any competition are a certain target audience, a section.

There is some risk of running into a not entirely benevolent audience and getting bogged down in a vicious skirmish or some other holivar. But it is only your choice - to react to such things or not.

Finally, it is very interesting to be a judge of the contest. Therefore, do not be afraid of lynch competitions. Of course, it takes time, but what a practice it gives! Firstly, you will kind of feel yourself in the shoes of an editor considering drift and understand how to interest him. Secondly, you will easily notice a dozen logs that you could not see in your own eye. Thirdly, you will get acquainted with a huge number of clichés, and you will know how to avoid them.

How to find out about competitions

Have you discovered the grain of writing talent in yourself and want to be appreciated? In this case, there are at least two scenarios. First, you gain patience and start bombing publishing houses with a synopsis of your work and the text itself from morning until late at night for days on end in the hope that someone will want to publish a young talent at their own expense. At the same time, get ready for long months of waiting - in most cases, publishers need from a month to three to review one manuscript.

Or the second option - you send your work to a prestigious competition. If everything goes well, you win and gain popularity, and now you are no longer chasing publishers, but vice versa. However, even if the victory goes to someone else, any competition of a wide scale is a good opportunity to light up. So keep it up! And especially for you, we have compiled a list of the best competitions for the young and promising!
