Rose City Romance Writers announces the 2008 Golden Rose Contest.
This is a completely electronic submission that precedes the Golden Heart.
The competition is designed to prepare you for the RWA Golden Heart contest.

contest is open to any RWA member who has not been published by an RWA
recognized publisher in the last five years. An entrant must not have
accepted a publisher's offer as of the August 3, 2008 deadline.
All entries should be part of a *completed* manuscript. Finalists have often
received requests for the full manuscript from editors.
Entries of fifty-five (55) total pages including manuscript and synopsis
(both
judged).
Contest deadline: August 3th

An editor/agent will rank the finalists in each category and select the
