Novel Endeavors' Second Annual Writing Competition: $1,000 Award
Deadline/Date: 15 December 2010

We are accepting fresh and original works of fiction (open to all genres). We want writing that is sharp, has style and is sculpted with the precision of the Venus de Milo.

A $1000 prize will be awarded to the best submission as determined by our editorial team.

Additional submissions will earn honorable mention status and will be published in our magazine.

Submissions will be accepted from September 1, 2010 until December 15, 2010. Winner and Honorable Mention recipients will be notified by 12/31/2010.

There is a $10 (USD) entry fee (pay via paypal or by mailing a money order to the address below) for each story submitted. Authors may submit more than one manuscript; however, each submission should include the required entry fee of $10

Judging will be blind, so please do not include your name or other identifier on your manuscript.

Please submit only original, unpublished work in English (writing that has appeared on your personal website, facebook page or blog is considered unpublished). Short stories of up to 8,000 words will be considered. Novel excerpts are not acceptable unless they are complete stand-alone stories. Simultaneous submissions are acceptable. Please notify us immediately if your work has been accepted elsewhere. We will not be able to refund any entry fees once manuscripts are submitted.

Submit your story as an attachment (.doc; .rtf; .pdf) or pasted into the body of an e-mail to Contest@novelendeavors.com. Please reference your paypal receipt number.
