The Emerald City Opener Contest is now open and accepting entries!
Your opener is the hook that attracts an editor or agent. Polish the first seven pages of your manuscript and enter the Emerald City Opener Contest, sponsored by the Greater Seattle Chapter RWA. Detailed scoresheets provide feedback, and judges (published authors and/or Golden Heart finalists/winners) are encouraged to write comments on your entry.
Entries that final will be judged by editors and agents. Plus, you’ll get a private appointment with an editor or agent at the Emerald City Writers’ Conference (October 9-11, 2009).
Entries (submitted electronically) must be e-received by midnight (PDT), June 1, 2009
Entry fee: $12 for GSRWA members, $20 for non-members
