The new year is almost upon us! For all of you aspiring writers out there, we invite you to join us on our 30-Day Tapas Writing Challenge starting Jan. 1st!
You’ve probably heard of National Novel Writing Month, or even National Novel Writing Day, where challengers take on a 50K-word novel. The Tapas Writing Challenge isn’t nearly as intimidating. All you have to do is write a page a day -- about 400 words/day (12-pt font, single-spaced).
We want you to channel those writing goals, wishes, and hopes you've always made, but never executed. Channel them and make it happen in 2017. Maybe this is the year you finish your novel. Maybe it’s the year you commit to a sustainable writing habit. This could be the year you get published. Better yet, published on Tapas!
Just start writing on Jan. 1st! Follow the story that has been in the back of your mind and create a world for readers to dive into. Make that first page matter, then the second, then the third. After 30 days, you’ll have the beginnings of an incredible story, and a page-a-day routine that you can continue for the rest of the year.
Then on Jan. 31st, pitch it to submissions@tapasmedia.co for the chance to become a published author. The result will be the best writing year you’ve had yet!
The 1st Place Challenge winner will be published on Tapas with a cash advance of $500!
2nd and 3rd Place winners will also be published on Tapas.
Only submissions pitched between Jan. 31st and Feb. 7th will be considered for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes.
We can’t wait to read your stories!
Goodluck!
