The H G Wells Society Essay Competition is intended to provide interested

Papers concerning any aspect of Wells's life and work are invited for

science; Wells and women; Wells and the social novel; Wells and colonialism;
Wells and his contemporaries; and Wells and the World State. Essays should
not exceed 14 pages double-spaced typing in length and should not have been
previously published. Submissions should be sent in WELLSIAN style (i.e.
first references in long form in footnotes; subsequent references in short
form in footnotes; subsequent main-text page references in brackets in
text). No bibliography/works cited.

A panel of appointed experts will judge the competition, and the winning
