The countdown has begun. Don't miss out! Submit your entry to the 2015 Weta Nichols Writing Contest TODAY!
Submit the first chapter (up to 2,500 words) of your unpublished novel to win prizes and a chance to be read by the agent or editor serving as our final judges. Louise Fury, an agent with The Bent Agency, will judge Historical and Young Adult/Middle Grade. Candace Havens, Editorial Director with Entangled Publishing, will judge Contemporary and Paranormal/Sci-Fi/Fantasy.
Contest is open to both published and unpublished authors, but the piece submitted must be unpublished (traditional, self-pub, or e-pub) and not under contract to be published. Entries are open genre and not required to contain romantic tones. Categories in which entries may be judged are:
- Historical
- Contemporary
- Paranormal/Sci-Fi/Fantasy
- Young Adult/Middle Grade.
Membership in Ozarks Romance Authors is not required in order to enter. There will be three prizes awarded in each category:
- 1st place – $75 and a 1-Year ORA Membership (a $25 value)
- 2nd place – $50
- 3rd place – $25.
Please read all guidelines carefully. If you have questions about the rules, please email us at OzarksRomanceAuthors@gmail.com with WETA QUESTION in the subject line.
Good luck!
