The ROSA contest closes at midnight tonight!

Happy Workers' Day to everyone in South Africa. I hope you've had a blissful long weekend!

The 2012 ROSA contest closes for submissions at midnight tonight, so if you haven't already entered, I hope you're spending the day working hard on polishing your submissions.

Just a few reminders:
  • The contest is open to South African citizens and residents of South Africa only
  • Only one entry per person please, as we don't want to overwhelm the judges
  • Check here to confirm whether you should enter the Published or Unpublished category
  • Entries should NOT have the entrant's name anywhere on the actual entry. Your cover email should contain the following information: full name/pseudonym, daytime contact number, email address, ID number and title of your entry.
  • Entries should be formatted in Word or RTF format, ideally double-spaced and professionally presented.
  • Full terms and conditions are available here
  • Send your entries to contest@romancewriters.co.za
Thank you very much to our Contest Administrator, Clare Loffler, who is no doubt going to be very busy these next few days!

Good luck, everyone!
