So you think you can write?

We have a winner!

Orca Book Publishers is thrilled to announce that Leanne Lieberman of Kingston, Ontario is the winner of our novel contest, So You Think You Can Write?

Leanne Lieberman

In the words of Kit Pearson, one of the judges, Leanne’s novel, Gravity, is

“a daring and honest exploration of a young girl both coming out as a lesbian and sorting out her spiritual beliefs. The writing is smooth and rich in detail, the dialogue is zesty, the plot suspenseful and all the characters are well-rounded. ”

Congratulations, Leanne. And thank you to the more than eighty writers who submitted their manuscripts to the competition.

Gravity will be published in Fall 2008.
