The Bandwagon: Anybody Doing This?

Anybody Doing This?

I'm chicken.

AMERICAN TITLE III
They always say that good things come in threes. So once again Dorchester is offering all unpublished authors a chance to participate in the American Title contest, co-sponsored by Romantic Times. This year we’re looking for contemporary romance: chick lit, romantic suspense, paranormals, romantic comedies and anything that falls in between. The finished manuscript should be 80,000-90,000 words, but to start we just need the first three chapters and a synopsis that summarizes the story from beginning to end. Send your entries by June 1st to:

AMERICAN TITLE III
Dorchester Publishing
200 Madison Ave., Suite 2000
New York, NY 10016

Please note that “unpublished” refers to authors who have never had a
full-length novel appear in print form.

I dreamed about Alex again. Also had a very complex dream about school, something about a talent show/science fair/writing contest/cooking competition all on one day. And I finally got to meet the principal's wife. And the principal kept disappearing with Cindi.

That was a drug-free dream, too, I want you to know.

And if you're curious, the new flavored Tostitos are gooooood.

The Tostitos I tried were lime and cracked black pepper. The other ones I bought but haven't opened yet are Ranch.

And yes, weird dreams. Oddly, I was supposed to be in charge of the talent show in the dream and ended up going through the writing contest so I could keep the entries as scrap paper.; 12:54 PM
MJFredrick said...: Good point, Cece. And what's the use of obsessing how you'll get votes if you don't even get to the final 10??

Hm....I wonder which book I would send....; 10:36 PM
