Novel Fair 2022 open for submissions

It’s that time of year again when writers all around the country start agonising over their synopsis. Yes, it’s Novel Fair 2022.

It’s not always easy for your novel to find its way on to the right desk, and the Irish Writers’ Centre Novel Fair is one of the best ways to make this happen.

Open to anyone, anywhere, The Novel Fair invites online applications from Ireland and internationally, with a closing date at the end of September.

It is an incredible opportunity and has opened the door to publication for a long list of authors, a recent success story being Words to Shape my Name by Laura McKenna (New Island)
