Hey there!

 

I just wanted to let this group know I have a new contest up, and guest judges are four acquiring editors at Sourcebooks. Among them is Peter Lynch, who acquires commercial and literary fiction for Sourcebooks. Your entry should be a one-line pitch and your first paragraph, and each editor will pick a winner. Lynch's winner will get a three-chapter critique. And anyone he likes could get a full request! There are no middle judges, every single entry will be read by the appropriate editor. And Lynch doesn't usually take unagented submissions, so this is a golden opportunity to catch his eye!

When are submissions to be in? Do we have to have a full before we enter?

"I truly believe there is a window that opens at the right time. I didn't start writing until I was 35 and now I've got almost 30 books under my belt. There is some sort of writing Karma for us all. Glad it's on your radar."
