Everyone knows contests are an excellent way to get work in front of industry professionals and get honest feedback. Today our super contest opens for entries! And get this, if you final, your manuscript goes in front of SIX judges. Yes. SIX!

The contest opens Sept. 1st. We will take only 120 entries.

This unique contest sponsored by the NOLA STARS is for PUBLISHED and UNPUBLISHED writers and mimics an editor's desk pitting genre against genre for six finaling spots. Here's who we've lined up to judge:

Keyren Gerlach, Harlequin/Silhouette
