Harper Impulse get in the festive mood…

Published August 12, 2013 | By Laura

We may still be in the middle of August but Harper Impulse are already thinking about Christmas time (and I for one love Christmas,) and are launching their wonderful WINTER WONDERLAND competition.

They are looking for novels of any length, which have a Christmas, Hanukkah or New Year theme in them (and, of course, some kind of romance!).

The competition is open to all kinds of stories from people of all backgrounds anywhere around the world -( if you’re not sure if your plot fits the competition, you can send them a hello on Twitter or Facebook.)

The prize is an amazing three-book contract with HarperImpulse. Also, they are throwing in an afternoon tea at Fortnum and Mason in London. If you are unable to make the afternoon tea, (as they know that a lot of their readers and writers are overseas!), a hamper of wonderful Fortnum and Mason treats will be sent to you, wherever you are in the world.

The closing date for entries is 16th October 2013.

Send all entries to romance@harpercollins.co.uk. Add ‘Christmas submission’ to the e-mail subject header. You can submit more than one story and submit more than once. Harper Impuluse ask that you also include a brief covering note about yourself and the submission.

(Submission guidelines and other FAQ, including information about royalties and formats)

I'm Laura. I started Novel Kicks back in 2009 as I wanted a place to discuss books and writing - two loves of my life. As someone who has anxiety, these two things give me, and I am sure countless others, a much needed escape.
There is a monthly book club, writing exercises, prompts, reviews, author interviews, competitions and guest posts. I cover many genres and I hope there is something for everyone.
I grew up by the sea in Dorset and currently live in Poole with my husband, Chris and three cats. I love writing and have a BA (Hons) in Creative Writing from Falmouth University. I am writing my first book. If only I could stop pressing delete. Chris has threatened to stop it from working. Haha.
I have always loved creative writing since I was in first school and would very much like to meet my teacher, Miss Sayers, to say thank you for all the encouragement she gave me then.
When not writing, I love reading, cats, Disney, singing (I can't sing but this doesn't stop me,) and falling into a good TV show or film. If I could step into any fictional world, it would be amongst the characters in ABC's Once Upon a Time.
I love reading many genres and discovering new authors.
