    I self-published my work though I'm not sure I'll enter this contest. It sounds like a great op for a self-pubbed author though. I'll go check out the details just in case I decide to change my mind. Thanks for sharing about this :-)

    Talk about a great prize, wow! Somebody's going to float to NYC on a cloud!

    As far as I can tell, Southern Writers Magazine and Yankee Down East aren't on the same tandem. But both are great mags!

    I've considered that contest before. Maybe someday.

    And are you liking Wolf Hall? I adore Mantel's writing.

      I am liking it more and more. Thomas Cromwell is a fascinating character. I had no idea he's be so interesting. I have the sequel, too :)
