OffSpring Award 2024 – „Brüche“ Ein Wettbewerb für junge Schreibende. Mit Helene Bukowski und Anneke Kim Sarnau

Hardly any biography follows a straight line. There are often breaks that shape our lives: New beginnings are the start of something new, breaks can either hurt or liberate. For better or worse, breaks influence our lives, especially as young adults.
We go in search of literary fault lines: Interested young writers (aged 16-26) can send their submissions in the form of a short story, essay or poem (max. 5 A4 pages, font size 12 pt) to offspringaward@litcologne.de by January 31. Our expert jury will select the three winners, who will be able to work on their texts at a writing workshop with the professional support of Helene Bukowski. At the final event, they will report on the writing workshop and Anneke Kim Sarnau will present their texts. The audience will decide who wins the Offspring Award 2024! Moderator: Dorian Steinhoff

The OffSpring Award is sponsored by Flossbach von Storch AG. More info also on Instagram: @offspringaward
