The prize:
Ms. Lawrence would like to see your full manuscript. Winners, please email me at facelesswords(at)gmail.com for specific submission instructions.
Congratulations, all!
Congrats to the winners and a big hearty thanks to Authoress and Ms. Lawrence for her excellent comments.
ReplyDeleteQuick question, though - I see that Ms. Lawrence (including everybody at the Erin Murphy Literary Agency) is not accepting unsolicited queries/submissions. However, if Ms. Lawrence mentioned in her comments that she thought an entry had a good opener or intrigued her, is it OK to query her the old-fashioned way while referencing this contest? Just curious.
Again - congrats to all on an awesome contest, as usual!
I wanted to especially thank Miss Lawrence for the care and attention she paid to each submission. I would also like to thank Authoress and all the commenters for creating an invaluable internet meeting place for aspiring authors to give and receive thoughtful criticism. Every work is better for having gone through the process on this site and that cannot be said of other blogs out there. So, let's all appreciate what we have and work hard as a community to keep it a place for high quality crit. It works for all of us so well and I am so glad I found this place.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to all the winners! :)
ReplyDeleteYay! Two of my favorites are on that list. In fact, I'm surprised to see Scientastic Supergirls again--I first read that one on another blog and thought it'd be scooped up in a heart beat. Such a great title.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck on your requests everyone :)

Congratulations to the winners! Great contest. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the winners!
ReplyDeleteOoh!! I'm so excited!
ReplyDeleteI entered mainly to get the critiques before I start querying, and with such strong entries, I really didn't expect to be selected as a winner.
I think today is going to be the day to start querying!
Thanks Melanie for the above and thank you to everyone for your feedback!
