Three Days Left To Enter the SUZANNAH Contest


I don't enter many contests, but perhaps because I won 2nd place (with my book, THE HOUSE IN GROSVENOR SQUARE)in the IRCC (Inspirational Reader's Choice Contest) from my RWA chapter this past summer, I entered another, this one, in fact. The Suzannah. I like this one because it actually awards a little money and a trophy. Cool.

If you're thinking about entering, think fast, because the deadline's almost here.
Good luck~!

The winner of the Suzannah receives $300.00, provided by the Suzannah
Nelson family, along with a beautiful trophy. So spiff up your entry (7200
words including a synopsis) and send it in! For more information and Contest
