Page Turner Awards is inviting aspiring writers and budding authors in the sports community to join their community of writers and get involved in the Page Turner Awards 2021.
The Page Turner Awards, sponsored by ProWritingAid, is an inclusive writing and book awards with one goal — to change the lives of as many writers as possible. The Page Turner Awards passionately believes that talented writers can be from any background, age, race, religion, or interest.
Sports fans community contain talented writers and undiscovered literary gems. Whether you have a historical look at their favourite sports team, a gasp-inducing thriller, or the next-big-thing comedy, Page Turner Awards can’t wait to pass your story to their panel of influential literary agents, publishers and film producers.
Perhaps it’s stories of sporting scandals that pique your interest, such as I, Tonya or She’s the Man.
Maybe you’ve found yourself inspired by stories like Bend it Like Beckham, where a young girl goes against her parents’ traditional wishes to pursue her passion for sport.
Or you might relate more closely with the opposite situation, where parents are encouraging. Think Fighting with my Family, or The Blind Side. And the fantastic sports story that turned into a gamble – Molly’s Game!
The inaugural Page Turner Awards was a huge success in terms of how many lives it changed.
Success stories include three writers winning literary representation, six writers winning a writing mentorship, five writers winning a publishing contract and 13 independent authors winning an audiobook production.
The Page Turner Awards gives writers and authors the chance to enter unpublished or published fiction and non-fiction and screenplays to be read by a carefully curated judging panel made up of influential players in the publishing industry. Prizes span everything from mentorships to audiobook production, publishing packages and film rights options.
Founder of Page Turner Awards and award-winning novelist, Paula Wynne said: “There are writers from all walks of life, from manual labourers to academics, all with stories to tell, and most of them heart-warming and moving. We’re proud that our awards celebrate excellent writing and help writers and authors to get their stories discovered.”
There is no doubt that members of the sports community, with their love for sports, will have some excellent and fascinating stories to share.
There is only one month left to enter your story! Submissions close on the 31st of May. Find out more: https://pageturnerawards.com/niche-stories/calling-all-sports-writers
