Novel Contests Roundup by C. Hope Clark On W.O.W

Got a novel manuscript burning a hole in your pocket? C. Hope Clark has a great article in her W.O.W. column about novel contests you can submit to while waiting for agents/editors to respond to your queries. She lists competitions for entire novels, excerpts, first chapters, and even first lines.

Thanks for mentioning FundsforWriters in your blog. Yes, those novel contests are a great to build credits while you're seeking an agent or publisher. I send mine out all the time. Won one and placed in two others. Looks good in a query!

No problem. It's a great article and several coffee and critique group members are prepping manuscripts.

I also love your newsletter. It helped me get an article published with Fiery Foods and BBQ Magazine.

Thanks again for all the market and contest information!
