“For anyone who enjoys writing, this was a great accolade.”
The competition was organised by Observer newspapers and the independent authors’ group, CHINDI. It was open to writers of all ages.
As well as Ms Mosse, the author of Labyrinth, the competition’s other judges included Peter Lovesey, an award-winning crime writer, and Lis Norton, a children’s author who lives in Fontwell.
The competition was launched last autumn by CHINDI. The group of authors organises promotional events and book fairs for independent self-published authors.
