2016 “JOURNEY INTO” WRITING CONTEST SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

SUBMISSION PERIOD: Submissions will open on April 1^st and close on May 1^st, 2016 at 11:59:59 PM

WORD COUNT: The story shall be 4000 words or less

WHAT TO WRITE:  All story titles must start with the words “Journey Into”.  The rest of the title, and the nature of the story’s journey is up to you.  I definitely want the character(s) in your story to go on some sort of journey.  Most likely that will be a physical journey, but I suppose one could go on a journey of the mind, or through dimensions, or to other worlds, or other lands, or even just down the street.  Be creative! But regardless of the journey, there should be action, plot, motivation, and choices.  Observations of pensive thought is not what I’m looking for.

CONTEST RESTRICTIONS: Please no splatter horror, grimdark, or explicit sexual content. Also please avoid coarse profanity (including Schlonz).

WHO WILL DECIDE THE WINNERS: A panel of volunteer judges.

PRIZES: 1^st PRIZE: $20, 2^nd PRIZE: $10, 3^rd PRIZE: $5.  All winning stories plus undetermined number of Honorable Mentions will be produced as a full cast audio production for the podcast.

WHERE TO SEND SUBMISSIONS: Email submissions to journeyintosubs@gmail.com

SUBMISSION FORMAT:  The subject line must contain the prefix of "2016 CONTEST:" followed by the title of your story.  The body of the email should be the text of your story.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF WINNERS: When the winners have been decided, we will contact you via your original submission email. The winner will also be announced here in the forums, on Facebook, Twitter, and on the show.

Promo for The Prometheus Saga anthology

Bria Burton, a great friend of the show, has a story published in this new and interesting anthology The Prometheus Saga.

Bria's Story is titled "On Both Sides", and it is a genuine coincidence that is goes along with this month's Journey Into... History.  The premise: When a mysterious woman vanishes during the American Revolution, young Robby Freeman searches for answers from a cryptic sharpshooter who deserted Washington’s Continental Army.

I haven't read any of the stories yet since the book launch is today, but I plan to.  Bria asked me to help her out with the audio for a book trailer.  It was a lot of fun to work with her on that.  So I thought I would share it with the rest of you.
