The announcement of the winners of the inaugural Brittle Paper Literary Awards was scheduled for 23 September 2017. However, a change in our plans has ensured that we are unable to go ahead with this date. The winners will now be announced on 23 October 2017.

In the meantime, we will publish features on the nominees. We will also publish overviews of the five categories: the ten nominations for the Brittle Paper Award for Fiction, the eight nominations for the Brittle Paper Award for Creative Nonfiction/Memoir, the ten nominations for the Brittle Paper Award for Poetry, the eight nominations for the Brittle Paper Award for Essays/Think Pieces, and the twelve nominations for the Brittle Paper Anniversary Award.

Once more, congratulations to the shortlisted authors.
