April's Winners

Without any ado, Ms. Shea’s winners:

First place: #7 THUMP

THUMP wins a request for the first 100 pages!

Second place: #12 GENTLY USED

GENTLY USED wins a request for the first 50 pages!

Third place: #5 OUTSIDE IN

OUTSIDE IN wins a request for the first 30 pages!

Congratulations, winners! Please e-mail me at kvandolzer(at)gmail(dot)com for instructions on how to submit your materials to Ms. Shea.

And remember, anyone who participated in this round of “An Agent’s Inbox” may still enter “The Writer’s Voice” later this week if you so choose. We’ll accept entries this Thursday, May 3, and we’re also planning to post some detailed submission guidelines the day before, so stay tuned!

Last but not least, a huge thank-you to Ms. Shea for judging this round and critiquing the entries. And a huge thank-you to everyone else for entering, critiquing, and generally talking up the contest. Couldn’t do it without you!
