I just received an email from Amazon telling me about this contest which starts NOW and submissions will be taken until March 2nd. The grand prize is a $50,000 publishing contract, but there are some $15,000 publishing contracts too. For those who wrote a novel during November for NaNoWriMo, this might be a good time to spend the next 2 weeks finishing it up and getting it submitted. Here is the link for those who feel inspired to take the risk: http://www.amazon.com/b?node=332264011&ref_=pe_390220_112582420_47

I have to admit I don't feel my novel is nearly ready, and I was poking along trying to edit it. I am stuck at one point where I need to do some research. But if I could write 50,000 words in November, there is a chance I could get my head out of my @$$ and get this book done and submitted. The grand prize is so tempting! The novel has to fit into one of five different categories, and must be between 50,000 and 125,000 words. I am going to push myself to do this. Anyone with me?
