Only a few days left!

So there are only a few days left to get your work into the Simone Wood Contest, 2009. This is your chance to win some of the $600 in prizes up for grabs, so if you have been working on your book for the last few months don't miss your window to get into the contest! You have until midnight on Sunday to get your work submitted to Sharing Books.

The contest will then run during the month of June, and the most popular books will win the awards. Keep in mind this is a full juried award, and will look awesome on your CV! Street cred comes on the side!

You Are Welcome

We at Sharing-Books want to make you feel welcome to enter our Children's eBook Contest. It is our way of encouraging you to give birth to that character who is aching to be noticed, but who is too often drowned out in the hurly-burly light of day.

This season, a favourite grandmother is being honoured. Simone Wood shared the dream of reaching out to others. Whether she befriended a field mouse with bits of cheese on her back stoop, or resurrected used books in her Oxfam shop, this Grandmother would have welcomed you.

For us, a contest is simply another way that our book creators can reach out to their audiences. Prize money is an added incentive to depict that character and share his or her story. In the children's book world, it is common to charge a fee of $25 to entrants for competing. We would rather not. We simply want to award three buckets of cash - not just one - to those who contribute to our community and share the dream of giving books away free to children.

So come on, join in the fun. Answer that little voice. When you participate, it tells your audience that you are sincere in your wish to publish. It allows your audience to encourage you by voting for your work. At Sharing-Books, you are in the community of friends, one who supports the act of creative writing and illustrating. Our community is around the globe, and each of us look forward to tuning in to read the lastest development in the children's book world.
