Choosing "The Right" Contest for Your Book
Carolyn Howard-Johnson shares writers’ resources on her award-winning blog Sharing with Writers
This year’s deadline is June 30. Submit a self-published book in one of the following categories, up to 150,000 words in length:
- General Fiction (literary and genre fiction)
- Young Adult Fiction
- Creative Nonfiction and Memoir
All contestants receive a copy of the third in the multi award-winning HowToDoItFrugally Series of books for writers, the How to Get Great Book Reviews Frugally and Ethically by Carolyn Howard-Johnson (PDF) and free guides to successful publishing from BookBaby.
Both the prizes and the benefits of just entering listed in the paragraph above are examples of the kinds of perquisites I tell authors to watch for. “Caring” and “Sharing” like this can set contests apart from the pack!
