It aims to find new talents in six areas of writing: short stories, novels, poetry, children's books, theater, and literary criticism.[2]
Winners get the following amount of money: $6,000 for first place, $4,000 for second, and $3,000 for third.[3] Their work also gets published and shown at Sharjah International Book Fair. Winners are invited to a workshop in Sharjah where they can learn more about culture and writing.[3]
