WIN prizes throughout November for NaNoWriMo 2018

If you thought writing a book was hard, try writing a book in a month.

That is exactly what participants of National Novel Writing Month, aka NaNoWriMo, aspire to do, and if you are one of them in 2018, we salute you with cherries on top.

To celebrate this awesome feat, we are claiming November for The Riff Raff WriMo Giveaway: this is your chance to win one of a heap of amazing lit prizes (that's lit as in literary AND as in lit) every single day, and slap my knee and call me Janet if we don't have some mega gifts waiting to be won.

We are offering up copies of world-beating debut novels, including some by Riff Raff authors of days gone including Olivia Sudjic's Sympathy, Dark Pines by Will Dean and In Our Mad And Furious City by Guy Gunaratne.

Or how about a copy of The Perfect Girlfriend by Karen Hamilton, The Pisces by Melissa Broder or Pretend I'm Dead by Jen Beagin? They could be yours.

What's more (yes, there's MORE) we're also giving away tickets to The Riff Raff event on November 8th as well as to our Christmas extravaganza on Thursday December 13th. There are huge discounts on The Riff Raff Manuscript Shakedown nestled in there too, and then, as the grand finale there is...

...well, let's just say we have a huge, giant, super exciting prize to give away right at the very end of the month. Obviously we're committed to no spoilers, but trust us – it will be worth the wait.

So how do I enter! I hear you cry? (Probably). It couldn't be easier: jump on over to @riffraff_ldn on Twitter, give us a follow and re-tweet the post of the prize you want to win with the hashtags #riffraffgiveaway and #NaNoWriMo2018. That's it. Genuinely. An awesome book could be winging it's way to you, courtesy of us, because we just think you deserve it.

If you have any questions, any at all, drop us a line at oi@the-riffraff.com. Otherwise, we'll see you on Twitter, word lovers.

Please note: sadly we are only to make the giveaway available to our followers in the UK.
