Results Declaration - Katha National Writers Workshop!

First, thank you to everyone for the overwhelming response to the Katha National Writers Workshop. Your enthusiasm and dedication have been truly inspiring, and we're excited to see such an impressive turnout of young storytellers from all over. As submissions close tonight at midnight, we wanted to share some important updates regarding the announcement of results and the next steps.

Revised Timeline for Results Announcement

We planned to release the results in one phase to handle the large number of entries and provide feedback quickly. However, because of the recent Diwali long weekend, we have decided to simplify the process for everyone's convenience. We will release the first set of results in a few days. The second set of announcements will be combined with the final list of selected candidates, which will be posted on or before November 10, 2025. Thank you for your understanding and patience as we carefully review each submission.

Exciting News About Regional Workshop Locations

We are pleased to announce that we will be holding workshops in Bangalore and Delhi. These cities will bring together young writers to learn and enjoy the art of storytelling. We will share the exact venues and dates with the final results beginning on November 10. The Bangalore workshop will take place on November 15-16, and the Delhi workshop will be on November 28-29.

Why We Made These Adjustments

With so many talented young writers eager to join the workshop, we strive to provide each participant with the best possible experience. These adjustments allow us to manage the logistics effectively and create a more immersive experience for each participant.

The Road Ahead

For those waiting for the results, we encourage you to keep pursuing your passion for writing and storytelling. Regardless of the outcome, every piece you create contributes to your growth as a writer. The Katha National Writers Workshop is just one step in your journey filled with opportunities to learn and connect through words.

We look forward to uniting a diverse group of young writers, where stories of culture and imagination will thrive. Stay tuned for updates, and be sure to mark November 10 for the announcement of the final results.
