This year, the competition is open to nonfiction submissions.
Nonfiction submissions can take the form of a memoir, a collection of essays, or a book-length work of narrative nonfiction. All submissions must be in English.
Awards:- The winner will receive a $10,000 advance and publication by Restless Books in print and digital editions.
Deadline:- 31-03-2021
