Log on to the site to read the first half of a story… it is been left incomplete at the most intriguing point. All you need to do is complete the story in less than 800 words and email it to Karadi Tales. The three best entries will be published in an audiobook narrated by the inimitable Jaaved Jaaferi. The winners will sign a publishing contract with Karadi Tales.
“It is time for Indian kids to read Indian stories by Indian writers,” says Shobha Viswanath, publishing director of Karadi Tales. “And it is up to publishers to encourage more Indians to write for children. This contest is intended to encourage everyone– youngsters and adults alike – to think out of the box and use their imagination to write a story. We at Karadi Tales are convinced that India is full of talented writers and we want to provide them the platform to write with us.”
This contest is open to everyone.
Entries must be received on or before 28 February 2010. You can also email your entries.
