The prize was established in 2010 by the New Media Writing Prize Committee, a group of writers, academics, and industry professionals who are dedicated to promoting and supporting new media writing. The prize is sponsored by the University of Lincoln's School of English and the National Centre for Writing.

The prize is open to writers who have published their work online, including writers of interactive fiction, digital poetry, and other forms of new media writing. The prize is judged on the basis of the quality and originality of the writing, as well as its technical execution and overall impact.
