Contest Entry

So, today I put together my entry package for the Royal Palm Literary Award contest run through the Florida Writers Association. The packet deadline is today. Nothing like waiting until the last minute, but I was still making revisions on the novel, and I wanted to make it as good as possible before submitting it. Winning the contest would certainly be a nice addition to my query letter, since I have absolutely nothing writing related to say in it. I don't know when they notify the winners, but the awards ceremony is in November, I believe, at a conference. The conference is expensive, so I don't know if we will attend. Hopefully, they will let me know before then, if I happen to be a winner.
