Judges
New York Times bestselling author Jane Green is our first confirmed judge for the competition. One of the founding writers behind the genre known as ‘chick lit’, Green writes novels that reflect the lives of real women today, with all the trials and tribulations that come with real life: from in-laws, motherhood, mid-life crises and loss, all of which are told with Green’s trademark warmth, wit and wisdom.
