Writer’s Digest Contest For Moms!

The publisher of Writer Mama, Writer’s Digest Books has been very good to me and that deserves a post of its own. But today I simply want to announce the contest that appeared alongside my article in the January/February issue of Writer’s Digest Magazine, The Write-At-Home Mom.
Here we go:

CONTEST: ARE YOU A WRITER MAMA (OR PAPA)?
Writing’s hard; parenting’s harder. Only the strongest souls would consider doing them both at the same time, and we applaud that spirit.

Writer’s Digest wants to hear from you on the topic of: “When Parenting and Writing Collide.” Write your best original, unpublished parenting-and-writing story in a 500-word essay and e-mail it to publicity@fwpubs.com with “Writer Mama contest” in the subject line. Christina Katz, author of Writer Mama, will select the top three entries. The first-place entry will be published in an upcoming issue of Writer’s Digest magazine; second- and third-place entries will be posted on thewritermama.com. All winners will receive a signed copy of Writer Mama.

All entries must be e-mailed to publicity@fwpubs.com by March 31. The entry must be written in the body of the e-mail; attachments will not be accepted or opened. Each entry should include your name, address, telephone number and e-mail address. Only the winning writers will be contacted, and entries will not be returned. Writer’s Digest retains first-time rights to run the winning entries in the magazine and/or on our website or associated websites, after which all rights return to the author. The decisions of the editors are final.
