The 2018 Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize

The Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize is an annual award for adventure writing. This award is split into two separate categories – a prize for the best published adventure novel and a prize for the best unpublished adventure manuscript submitted for consideration.

The winner of the prize for a published novel will receive £15,000. The winner of the prize for an unpublished manuscript will be offered the Writer’s Adventure Research Award. The award is an exceptional opportunity in the form of a £7,500 grant, enabling the winner to travel to undertake invaluable research for their next story. They will also be offered a mentoring relationship with Wilbur Smith’s literary agents at Tibor Jones & Associates.
