THE SEVENTH ANNUAL FAITHWRITERS'
PAGE TURNER WRITING CONTEST
2013 - CHRISTIAN FICTION
FaithWriters.com, Finesse Writing and Editing Service, and Breath of Fresh Air Press are pleased to announce the seventh Page Turner Writing Contest--and this year, it's for all the fiction writers.
If you are a member of the FaithWriters Platinum 500, you are invited to enter this very special contest created just for you. If you are not yet a Platinum member, this is the perfect reason to upgrade your membership.
So, if you've got a half-written manuscript gathering dust in the bottom of your wardrobe, or have a first draft after participating in NaNoWriMo, or have had an idea for a novel brewing in the back of your mind for years, this contest is just the spur you need to get writing and polishing--and we'll even give you to the end of October to do it.
All you need to do is write the first chapter, together with a synopsis/overview of the planned book, and then submit it for the 2013 Page Turner Writing Contest.
One entry will be chosen as the FaithWriters Page Turner Champion for the year, with the author receiving:
1. A fabulous cash prize of $800;
2. Free editing of their manuscript (up to 300 pages);
3. Free publicity and marketing of their book on all FaithWriters' sites for twelve months following publication;
4. A special Page Turner Champion award plaque.
5. Consideration for publication of winning manuscript by new Christian publisher, Breath of Fresh Air Press (publisher of the new line of Mixed Blessings books).
6. Free conference registration for either the 2014 US FaithWriters Conference or 2014 FaithWriters' Down Under Conference (see terms and conditions).
Two runners-up will also receive FaithWriters Page Turner Highly Commended award plaques and the offer of half price editing for their manuscript. They will also receive free registration for either the 2014 US FaithWriters Conference or 2014 FaithWriters Down Under Conference (see terms and conditions).
Brief feedback, based on the judges' notes, will be available to entrants after the contest is concluded. However, this feedback will only be provided at the entrant's request, which should be noted in the synopsis.
