You know the agent-judged contest I've been telling you about? It opens this Monday on The QueryTracker Blog, and all you have to submit is a hook (a one sentence description of your book.) The prizes haven't been officially announced, but I'm going to spill about them anyway.
Agent Joanna Stampfel-Volpe will consider your full manuscript.
Yep, that's the prize. How cool is that?
Runners-up will get to submit partials.
So be sure to check out the blog for all the details, and let me know if you have any questions!

W-W-WHAT!!!! ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!!
Has this person already seen your manuscript? I don't have one, but I will totally enter to get him to consider yours!!!
her* I meant her! Joanna is a girls name, so I don't know why I said he! sorry!
J.N. Future Author, you are so incredibly sweet! I would hug you if you were here. Because I'm an author of the QTblog, I'm ineligible to enter the contest. But thank you so much for thinking of me!
Holy cow, that's cool! Thanks for sharing early. :D
Lady G, are you planning on entering? I know you have a couple of complete mss.
Le gasp! Thanks so much for sharing! I'm totally going to enter. :)
Yay Jen! I'm so glad you'll be entering! I have more than one friend who has found their agent by winning a contest.
Good luck! ;)
HooBoy! The pressure is on now to produce a worthy one sentence hook. LOL Thanks for letting us know!
WOW! I am so excited about this. Not just for me, but all of us! Good luck everyone!
Steph :)
Good luck, all of you! I'm rooting for you!
Oh, how I wish my manuscript was completed!
I should take a shotgun to my computer for eating 35K of it because it would probably have been done at this point....but on the other hand, by being forced to rewrite it in this way, my manuscript is probably much better than it would have been.
Maybe I'll be ready the next time something like this comes around.

No worries, Cynde. We have several contests lined up, approximately one per month.
If I had a shotgun I'd shoot your computer for you. *wink*
