Comic joins Kindle Storyteller Award panel

Sue Perkins and Baroness Floella Benjamin have joined the judging panel for the 2023 Kindle Storyteller Award.

The literary prize celebrates the UK’s best self-published story, with the winning author receiving a £20,000 prize fund and a marketing campaign for their title on Amazon.co.uk.

Perkins said: ‘I'm very excited to join the judging panel. Writing a book is a huge accomplishment; it takes a lot of passion, effort and talent to bring words to life. 

‘This award gives budding authors a huge opportunity to continue doing what they love. I can’t wait to delve into this year’s entries.’ 

The award is open to authors who publish their story via Kindle Direct Publishing between May 1 and August 31 this year. For further information, visit www.amazon.co.uk/storyteller.
