The deadline for submissions to this award is May 31, 2023. The submission window will open February 1, 2023 and close at midnight May 31, 2023 EST.
Hidden River offers the Tuscarora Award for an unpublished book-length work of historical fiction. The winning manuscript will be published by Hidden River Press, an imprint of Hidden River Publishing, and will receive a prize of $1000.
Entry fee: $20 US.
This competition is open to international submissions for all writers in English. We also welcome works translated into English from any language. Since this is a writing award, not a translation award, the manuscript must be submitted by the author with the translator and the original language listed in the submission materials. For translations, the work need only be unpublished in English. Publication in its original language or in other translations is permitted.
Please be aware that we consider ALL forms of publication as disqualification. Self-publishing is publication; if your manuscript has an isbn number, or if it is available for sale online and/or brick and mortar stores, your book is "published".
All submissions must include name, address, telephone number, email, website (if you have one), a brief biography, full synopsis, outline and full manuscript, in that order. Please note that, when submitting online, all materials must be combined into ONE document before uploading. Be sure to upload all required materials, including the synopsis BEFORE the manuscript, which should be uploaded last.
We do not read "blind," so there is no need to remove your name from your manuscript.
Simultaneous submissions are always accepted. We ask only that you contact us asap if you place the manuscript for publication elsewhere. Multiple submissions are also accepted; each must be a separate submission.
All awards are decided by Hidden River staff, and decisions are final. We reserve the right to withhold the prize on any given year should our staff decide that no manuscripts meet the winning criteria.
Note: All submissions will be considered for regular publication by Hidden River Publishing.
