E Emerging Writers in India Honored at Step-Up Authors League - SBWF 2025

In an exciting turn of events, the Summer Book Writing Festival (SBWF) 2025 has come to a thrilling conclusion with the announcement of the winners from the Step-Up Authors League. This league was designed specifically for students who hadn't participated in earlier leagues (Legacy and Emerging), providing them with a valuable opportunity to publish their books and qualify for the festival's remaining stages.

BriBooks, the world's largest publishing platform for school students, hosted this year's festival. With its tools for writing, publishing, and sharing stories worldwide, thousands of students across India have become published authors, gaining local and national recognition.

The Step-Up League saw hundreds of students publish their unfinished drafts, refine their stories, and formally publish their work within the league. The winners were recognised under two national titles: Jury Choice and Best-Seller.

The Jury Choice winners were selected for their literary voice, originality, and depth, while the Best-Seller winners connected widely with readers. The Best-Seller winners of the Step-Up Authors League are:

  • Unbroken Spirit of a Soldier - Vaarahi Bajaj
  • What the Sea Couldn't Bury - Samragyi Rana
  • The Five Friends - Yashvi Khurana
  • The Compass of Whiskerwind - Ishika Syam
  • I Woke Up with a Superpower - Viraaj Handoo
  • Shadows of Truth - Rajshree Pandey
  • Be Aware from Coronavirus - Aaditya Sinha
  • Whispering Tales - Sayesha Sreyashi Saroj
  • The Hidden Crown - Gargi Goel
  • Nemesis - Akshaj Samaria

The specific students who won the national title "Jury Choice" in the Step-Up Authors League at the Summer Book Writing Festival 2025 are not identified in the provided search results.

As the Step-Up League comes to a close, the State League and National Authors League are set to begin, following the conclusion of the festival. With the completion of all sub-leagues, participation in SBWF 2025 is expected to cross 1 million students, making it one of the largest student writing initiatives globally.

The journey for these aspiring authors is just beginning, as they continue to share their stories and inspire others with their literary talents. The Summer Book Writing Festival 2025 has undoubtedly provided a platform for these students to showcase their work and gain recognition in the literary world.
