New Delhi, April 29 (SocialNews.XYZ) Twenty-five budding authors have made the cut for an anthology, 'You Are All I Need' to be published by Penguin Random House India from among the 1,500 entries received for a contest jointly conducted by the publisher through its #GetPublished initiative and the Romedy Now entertainment channel to give upcoming writers a rare opportunity to see their work in print.

"There are great synergies between the stories I write, which Penguin publishes and the stories that Romedy Now telecasts.

The contest was announced on Valentine's Day (February 14), with the stories being limited to 1,500 words.

"Romedy Now is synonymous with distinctive content and stories that capture the essence of 'Love. Laugh. Live'. Akin to the brand ethos, GetPublished is a unique initiative that celebrates the stories and provides an exclusive opportunity to the upcoming authors to share it with the audience," Vivek Srivastava, President - Strategy and Business Head - English Entertainment Cluster, Times Network, said.

Vaishali Mathur- Publisher, Indian Languages, Penguin Random House India, said it had been an "absolutely brilliant experience" working on the project and that "we can't wait to share these stories" with the reading public.
