The Page Turner Awards celebrated several winning authors, writers, and screenwriters at a glittering online ceremony where Oscar winner, Barry Morrow, who wrote the story Rain Man, was a special guest of honour.

The Page Turner Awards, sponsored by ProWritingAid, offers authors, writers, and screenwriters the chance to enter the first 10 pages of their writing project, where a judging panel of literary experts and film producers will read the work.

For the 2022 awards, many aspiring writers walked off the red carpet with life-changing prizes.

One new unpublished writer won literary agency representation. Another won a publishing deal while Shia Beouf won the Page Turner Screenplay Film Script Award for A8450, M.D. He also won representation with Sean Dubravac of Entertainment LA

Eight writers won writing mentorships and one independent author won an audiobook production from Squeaky Cheese Audiobooks, plus three authors won a book adaptation to have their published novel adapted to a film script. There were many more prizes awarded to writers in different award categories.

Barry Morrow said, “Thank you so much for having me. It’s been so much fun watching the anticipation and joy of these awards. And to remember what it’s like to start your writing career. It’s a wonderful thing you are doing, and I’m happy to be part of your awards.”

Founder of Page Turner Awards and award-winning novelist, Paula Wynne said: “There are writers from all walks of life, from manual labourers to academics, all with stories to tell, and most of them heart-warming and moving. We’re proud that our awards celebrate excellent writing and help writers and authors to get their stories discovered.”
