Great minds think alike? Sarah at Fallen Formulates Fiction is also holding a writing contest to celebrate hitting a followers milestone. Choose from a list of six writing prompts, write a flash fiction piece (up to 750 words) and submit it by Friday, March 26 for a chance to win some pretty fabulous prizes. Read about the details HERE.
If you need a little more lead time, my Eleventy-one Followers Celebration Writing Contest has a deadline of Sunday, April 4. Submit a dialogue-driven piece, up to 700 words, that involves negotiation and persuasion. Novel excerpts are fine, if they can stand alone. The genre and content is up to you. I only ask that you keep it clean: Please no erotica, horror or R-rated language. I'm giving away critiques or copy editing (I edit professionally for a scholarly journal), as well as some pretty awesome books. Click HERE for more details.
And don't forget my microfiction challenge! It's a fun way to join the ranks of the published!
Are you considering my contest, but feel a little low on ideas? Would some writing prompts help get the juices flowing?

Guess I better sharpen up my pencil.
ReplyDeleteLots of great contests are hanging out in the blogosphere right now. I wish I had time to write something to enter, but I've set a strict guideline for myself for Book #2. I don't want to lose my mojo!

ReplyDeletethanks for the well-wishes, everyone. Hope to hear from some of you by April 4!
ReplyDeleteIf we have our entry for your contest ready, would you like us to send it along now or wait for a little while longer? I hate to seem pushy. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm planning to join in but haven't gotten down to business, yet. Too much coffee shop confessing and eavesdropping!
ReplyDeleteSarahjayne: Feel free to send it whenever you're ready. Others have done so, so you wouldn't be the first.
ReplyDeleteMary: just 12 more days till the deadline!
