Search is on for the Queen of Teen writing

A new award, the “Queen of Teen”, has been launched to celebrate fiction for girls and to find the female author most favoured by teen readers. The shortlist of 10 authors voted for by teenagers include Meg Cabot, Cathy Hopkins, Grace Dent, Louise Rennison and Cathy Cassidy. The full shortlist can be seen on the website www.queenofteen.co.uk, where young people can also cast their votes. The final winner will be chosen by teenagers at a special event in September.
