Published Prize Authors
Publishers will be asked to complete the entry form and to submit a PDF to hello@comedywomeninprint.co.uk and 2 copies of each book entered via post to the address named in the guidelines.  Further copies will be requested for long listed entries.

In light of the current economic environment and the impact this has had on numerous book prizes, CWIP will require a £20 entry fee from the publisher for each book entered. After submitting your entry/ies we will be in touch to invoice you accordingly. However, if you feel this cost will prohibit the entry on behalf of your author, then please do let us know/get in touch to discuss.


In the event of being successfully selected as a longlisted book, to offset some of the processing costs, £100 will be required from the publisher and a further £100 for shortlisted entries. In the event of being successfully selected as a shortlisted published novel the publisher is required to sticker copies of the Published novel with artwork provided by CWIP. Artwork will also be provided for the winning novel.
