Welcome
The Winston Graham Historical Prize
The Royal Institution of Cornwall is pleased to announce The Winston Graham Historical Prize, funded by a generous legacy from the author and supported by his family.
In 2008, its inaugural year, the Prize will be awarded for an unpublished work of historical fiction, preferably with a clear connection to Cornwall. It will be supported by publishers Pan Macmillan.
The Prize will be £5000 cash, with the potential for publication by Pan Macmillan, subject to their acceptance. In subsequent years the value and subject of the Prize may change.
To be considered for short-listing, authors must submit a synopsis (not exceeding 500 words) together with the first two chapters of their work and an entry fee of £25, by 31 March 2009.
The Prize is open to anyone over 18 years, including non-UK entrants.
