Writers' League of Texas 2018 Manuscript Contest
Have you been working hard on an unpublished manuscript that's finally ready to see the light of day? Are you looking for some professional feedback on your work-in-progress?
Well, here's your chance! You are invited to submit a short synopsis and the opening pages of your unpublished work to the Writers' League’s 18th annual Manuscript Contest. (And no, you don't have to live in Texas to enter this contest. It's open to everyone, everywhere!)
The winner in each category will meet individually with a top literary agent (and the final judge in their category) at the 2018 Agents & Editors Conference in June. All entrants—whether winners or not—will receive written feedback on their submission from a published author or experienced writing professional.
Best of all, you do NOT need to have a complete, finished manuscript to enter this contest. All you need are the first (roughly) ten pages of the manuscript plus a synopsis that describes the rest of the book you have planned.
Deadline: January 31, 2018
Entrance Fees: $25 Writers' League of Texas members / $35 nonmembers (DOES NOT INCLUDE A WRITTEN CRITIQUE)
OR: $55 Writers' League of Texas members / $65 nonmembers (INCLUDES A WRITTEN CRITIQUE)
