$10,000 Nonfiction Prize
Share the Post:
Deadline: Sept. 30, 2022
Sutherland House is establishing an annual prize for the best nonfiction book project, open to both new and experienced writers anywhere in the world. The winner will receive a contract for publication with Sutherland House including a $10,000 (Can.) advance.
The prize will emphasize works of narrative non-fiction that require substantial research or subject matter expertise. It will be awarded to a work in progress, either a well-developed proposal or a first-draft manuscript. This will allow our editors to work with the prize winner, providing editorial guidance toward the project’s completion. At minimum, entrants should have a written overview of the book, a sample chapter, and a thorough chapter-by-chapter synopsis.
Writers do not need an agent to submit, although agents are welcome to submit the work of writers they represent. The 2022 Sutherland House Nonfiction Prize will be judged by Sutherland House editors. Sutherland House will announce the winning submission by December 1, 2022.
