These Global Level Competitions are REALLY GLOBAL, attracting entries from around the Globe. This 2009 Competition has lots of entries from Europe and Kerala.

Another special nature of these Literary Awards is the integrity with which the winners are selected. MAM’s goal is to leave the decision as to the winners in the hands writers of proven ability.
