Entries open for Sanlam Prize for Youth Literature 2011 & Arts Update

We also heard from Michelle Cooper – from Tafelberg. Tafelberg & Sanlam are calling on writers to enter the Sanlam Prize for Youth Literature 2011. They want a story in which hope plays a role. Manuscripts in any of the official languages will be accepted. Categories are: English, Afrikaans, Nguni-languages, Sotho-languages, Tshivenda, Xitsonga and SiSwati. In each category there are two prizes: Gold (R12 000 in cash and publication) and Silver (R6 000 in cash and publication). The deadline for entries is 30 June 2011. Unfortunately e-mail submissions are not allowed. The organizers request entrants to keep a copy of their entry. The names of the finalists will be announced before the end of 2011. The entry form and the competition rules are available at www.nb.co.za or contact Danita van Romburgh at NB Publishers for further enquiries on (021) 406 3412 or dvanromb@nb.co.za
