The Brava Contest Is Back!

Several years ago, author Lori Foster spearheaded a contest for Kensington Brava. The contest went on hiatus last year (and maybe even the year before, I don't remember for sure), but now it's back!

The 5th annual Brava Novella Contest will begin accepting entries at midnight central time on August 1, 2007 and will cease accepting entries at midnight central time on September 30, 2007. All entries must be made using the online entry form that will be forthcoming. Watch the Brava Authors blog and the Contest Forum for information. No email or snail mail entries will be accepted.

Entries must be 750 words (actual word count using your computer's word count function) and entrant’s choice of any scene in the novella. Entries over 750 words will be disqualified. This year, for the first time, the contest will have a theme, which entries must be follow--reunited lovers.

All entries will be judged by established Brava authors, with the top twenty finalists being judged by Kensington Editorial Director Kate Duffy. As in previous years, there will also be voting by readers with the highest voted entry being named the “Readers’ Choice.” Judging will be held during the month of October with winners announced by November 15, 2007.

One entry per person.

Visit the message board’s Contest Forum for information or to post questions about the contest, which will be run through the message board.




If you decide to enter, good luck!
