OAK TREE PRESS MEMOIR CONTEST

Oak Tree Press is holding its first memoir contest. Entry fee is $25 and the deadline is Sept. 30. First place is publication in both trade and e-book formats. So far, we've had few entries. Although the memoir contest is not listed, rules are the same as the Dark Oak mystery contest. The only difference is the extended deadline and the book can be as short as 40,000 words. http://www.oaktreebooks.com/DarkOak2001.htm

I'll be sending along my memoir sometime soon, Sunny. Glad to see this reminder on Authors.com AND to see that there's a section of the site just for memoir writers. That's what I'll probably blog about.

Shannon,

The rules can be found on this website: http://www.oaktreebooks.com/memoir-contest.htm So far, not a lot of people have submitted, so, unlike other contests, you probably have a better chance of winning. This is the first time we've offered this sort of contest, and whether we do so again depends on how successful it is.

Good luck!

Also, Shannon, there's a newsletter online that has many great tips for writers. It's free. My article on the history of publishing is included:
