Let's Hear Your Story

Not to be redundant, but we’d like to remind y’all of our awards program, OUT OF THE SLUSH PILE, Novel Journey’s Fifteen Minutes of Fame Contest.

The judges are reviewing the entries for Contemporary Romance, the winner of which will be announced May 10.

That date is also the submission deadline for Science Fiction/Fantasy/Horror, for which we’ve already received a number of promising-looking tales. You still have over a week to send yours in, so shine up your first chapter and synopsis, and download an entry form. Email your submissions, or any questions you may have about the contest, to NovelJourneyContest@gmail.com.

But what if you’ve written an historical, a crime story, or something for young adults? Never fear, you can get in the action as well. Here’s a list of the remaining categories in which we’ll be accepting entries throughout the rest of the year:


We've been reading lots of good entries, but we know you have a story too. So let's hear it!
