Silver Sage Writing Competition Opens
Are you the next John Grisham, Danielle Steele or Judy Blume? Do you have "novel" ideas? Now is the time to get started writing. Trois Riviere Fiction Writers (TRFW) announces the opening of the Silver Sage Excellence in Writing Competition for 2007.
"This is a chance to get your writing in front of professionals in the publishing industry," says Roberta Summers, president of TRFW. The contest categories include historical fiction, contemporary fiction, and children’s novels. All genres within these categories are welcome with the exception of futuristic and erotica. No short stories, poetry, or nonfiction will be accepted. Enter by submitting the first twenty pages and a one-page synopsis of your original, unpublished novel by the June 1, 2007 deadline. There is a $15 fee per entry. Complete rules and submission guidelines can be found at the organization’s website www.trfw.net or call Roberta at 505-325-4338 for more information.
Published authors will read and critique each entry. Editors will judge the three finalists in each category. The overall Silver Sage winning entry will receive a monetary award and plaque. In addition, a cash prize will be awarded in each entry category.
Trois Riviere Fiction Writers is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping new and established writers and is located in northern New Mexico.
