Interesting Contests

I took these from the RWA Writers Report, July, 2004 edition.

The criteria for my selection was that they had something a little out of the ordinary, either the prize or the type of entry.  Rather than your typical first three chapters and synopsis, these offered the writer a slightly different challenge.

Good luck if you enter.
