And I’m not exaggerating. Christmas in July is huge!
Ruth Lauren Steven and Michelle Krys, YA writers extraordinaire, are co-hosting this incredible competition.
30 pitches, 10 agents, 1 week.
I’m jumping up and down in my seat already.
And here’s the really exciting part. They are accepting a wide range of genres. Children’s picture books, MG and YA (all genres), and Adult submissions of ALL GENRES (except erotica)!!
Check out the details of the competition here and here. Michelle has duplicate posts on her blog here and here.
Not only are these ladies wonderful writers, they’re also smart cookies and witty, too. Totally worth following and stalking on all the social networking sites. So get busy people!
Don’t forget to use the hastag #XmasinJuly on Twitter!
I’ve been to their sites, very exciting indeed.
If I had a completed manuscript, I’d be signed up by now.
Good luck to everyone that can give it a try.
Yep, that’s my problem, too. No completed MS. But I’m still very excited. Can’t wait to see the bidding process. I’m a total voyeur.
Where was this contest when I needed it? What a great opportunity for authors to wet their feet in agent-infested waters! Thanks for the share, Amaleen will tweet and share this! Cheers!
Thanks, Sharon. I’m sure Ruth and Michelle will really appreciate that!
Thanks Sharon! And thank you Amaleen
I’d love to sign up. How do I do it?
Michael, just follow the link to either Michelle’s or Ruth’s blog. They have all the details on how to enter and the submission window. Best of luck.
