We're running a contest during the first week of December for all

When: December 1st through December 8th.
Where:

What to do: submit a brief plot summary or “book jacket copy” about their novel, maximum 250 words, in the contest entry's comments.
Who wins: LJ Editors will select the top five finalists from the entries. Guest judge Mark Coker (you may remember Mark from his recent LJ interview) from Smashwords will choose one grand prize winner from the finalist pool.
Prizes:
1 Grand Prize winner
Amazon Kindle
Blurb.com $20 gift certificate
4 Finalists prizes
Blurb.com $20 gift certificate
(Blurb.com is a website where authors can publish hardcover or paper copies of their books.)
For some, the anticipation of this contest might feel like Waiting for Godot. For others, these words could be no more than "a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing" but a chance to win some prizes. Either way, we look forward to reading your submissions! Good luck, writers!
