[Leslie Ann]

I've not heard of this award before. What is the criteria for entering?

[Robin]

Not much in the way of restrictions.

- Must be unpublished previously
- 50,000 - 100,000 words
- Written in English
- a few restrictions on content (no pornography, offensive, illegal, or plagrism, etc.)

[Roxanne]

I'm with you, Leslie. I never heard of this award before, although I found out it is in its fourth year. It's worth entering. A one in ten thousand chance is better than a query in a slush pile.

[Robin]

I'm pretty sure this is its second year - not the fourth - but I could be wrong.
