Launching a writing competition is often used as a tool for innovation and research. The process itself may seem not very complicated. However, with simple processes errors can easily arise.

This book explains the process putting into consideration many aspects that increase the efficiency and impact of the project, in addition to developing the contributors. Examples of these aspects are choosing the theme of the competition, building partnerships, setting the criteria, selecting the jury members, giving feedback to writers, publishing the book of winning entries, the award ceremony, etc…

There is a humane side of the book which deals with contributors who were not chosen as final winners, how to deal with them, how to assure they are motivated to perceive this as a learning experience, etc.

Organizations, NGOs, Schools, Libraries, Publishers and others, are encouraged to engage the society with writing competitions. This book can be an excellent guide for you.
