A Dream Come True Writing Contest

Ever read a story and wished it ended differently? Ever have a
better idea for the ending? My name is Michael T. Owens. You may
have seen coverage on me in Adweek Magazine, Yahoo News, etc. I'm an
author and owner of a small new publishing company. To find talented
writers, I'm sponsoring a writing contest with a $500 reward! The
contest is simple. Read my latest novel "A Dream Come True", write
your own alternate ending, and submit it! That's it. 10 finalists
will be selected from all the entries. One grand prize winner will
be chosen from the finalists.

Rules and Guidelines:

***Submissions will be judged on originality, relevance to the
story, characterization, and overall execution***


1. NO entry fee. The competition is open to all writers published
and unpublished. There is no length requirement. Do whatever it
takes to tell a good story.

2. Entries may be submitted via email or regular mail. Please number
your pages. Type your name, address, phone number, and email address
on the first page.

If submitting by regular mail, use delivery confirmation since we
cannot personally notify everyone of entry receipt. Manuscripts will
not be returned. Email entries with the subject line "Writing
Contest" to: publishone1@yahoo.com For regular mail:

Montage Publishing International
Writing Contest
PO BOX 162621
Altamonte Springs, FL 32716

***Entries must be received by December 17, 2005. The winner and
finalists will be notified by March 17, 2006***

3. Submissions must be formatted as a Microsoft Word document
or .rtf file, typed, and double-spaced. All entries must be
original, unpublished, and not submitted elsewhere until the winners
are announced.

Find copies of "A Dream Come True" at libraries, bookstores, and
online retailers.

***All finalists receive signed copies of my novels and
anthologies*** Good Luck! http://www.michaeltowens.com

Cleaver marketing...

I like the concept and benefit to both sides.
