Erewash Writers - running a free-to-enter short story competition here, which is open to anyone, worldwide and has an interesting theme: ‘full stop’ and closes on 7th November 2013.
There’s not long to go for this one but if you’ve written (or are in the middle of writing) a romance novel, you might be interested in winning an ebook publishing contract with Piatkus Entice.
The winner will be announced at the Festival of Romance in November.
You have to email the first two chapters of your novel and a
short, enticing synopsis of no more than 100 words to Piatkus.Entice@littlebrown.co.uk
before the closing date of 2nd September. But read all the rules here first.
Christmas Novel Competition c/d:
16th October 2013
And talking of romance, there’s a competition for a romantic
‘Christmas Novel’ (or New Year or Hannukah), here. The prize is a three-book
contract with HarperImpulse and afternoon tea at Fortnum and Mason in London. -
See more here.
The closing date is 16th October and I rather fancy this one
myself!
Chicken
Soup For The Soul
The US publisher of 'inspirational and heart-warming stories' is

dogs.

and comply with Chicken Soup for the Soul's detailed guidelines.
There is a payment of $200 for each accepted story. The deadline

for other books too, if you look here on the ‘submit a story’ page).
