Bloggers, I have exciting news for you today. Shelli Johannes at Market My Words is holding one AMAZING contest. Shelli is agented by Alyssa Eisner Henkin of Trident Media Group and is offering a personal recommendation to her agent to the winner. Hop over to her blog. Become a follower of both her blog and twitter and then enter your maximum four sentence pitch on a completed M/G or Y/A novel. Follow the rules of the contest and you're in. Dates Jan. 31st through February 4th, 2011.
Shelli will then pick her top five choices and ask for a full query pitch letter. The top two or three will get a query critique and the opportunity to send your first three chapters!
Her favorite she will recommend to her agent. How awesome is that! So start writing that four sentence pitch and enter!
Pop by tomorrow and I will have my entry and dedication to my Pay it Forward recipient. You must pay tribute to a person who has helped you in your writing or personal life. (Also my favorite part of the contest)

Now for some other exciting news. I was picked as a finalist in Dom's NO FEAR blogfest. Please take a moment and hop over to his blog Writes of Passage and VOTE for your favorite entry. There are some wonderful stories you do not want to miss. Scroll down to mine if you missed it.
Have a wonderful Monday everyone and as always thank you so much for stopping by!
Creativity is a terrible thing to waste. Although creative writing is important to all who seek this blog, I would also like to share with you other creative outlets such as art, design, and music. Without them, there would be no inspiration for our writing.
