Listen Again - to World Radio Switzerland

Calling all budding writers! In this episode, Quade Hermann from the Geneva Writer's Group speaks with WRS' Katt Cullen about their Literary Prize 2025. They’re inviting writers from around the globe to submit works of fiction & non-fiction (up to 1500 words) and poetry (up to 50 lines) by January 31st to enter the competition.

Winners will receive promotion, a cash prize, and will have the opportunity to read their works at upcoming Geneva Writer's Group events.

The competition is also a fundraiser; entry into the competition is CHF 25 per for non-members or CHF 20 for young writers and members. The price is per entry (writers can submit multiple works) and that will be split 50/50 to cover the association's admin costs for the competition and as a donation to the excellent work of the Cancer Support Switzerland based in Geneva.

In this interview, Quade Hermann explains the competition format, introduces the panel of judges, and discusses why the theme of "hope and resilience" is so powerful right now, inspiring writers around the world.

Submit your work at genevawritersgroup.org before 31 January 2025 to enter.
