Our First Fiction Femme Fatale Giveaway!!!

This month is one of those five Friday months that leaves us with an extra Friday and no story...so instead of a story, how about we have our very first giveaway? In order to thank those of you who are checking in and taking the time to read our stories (and for those of you who are just about to discover us), we have compiled a list of truly impressive giveaways for this, our first contest.

LIKE:

An arc of Libba Bray's newest, THE DIVINERS!

An arc of Chris Colfer's (Kurt on Glee) new book, THE LAND OF STORIES!

A query critique by Amy's agent, Lucienne Diver with The Knight Agency!(stay tuned as we do a spotlight interview with her in the coming weeks)

A first chapter critique of your manuscript by our own Amy!

A critique  of choice: query or first chapter by our own Stefanie!

That's FIVE awesome prizes given out by the Fiction Femme Fatales on the Fifth Friday of this month!!

Like how we managed to tie all these F words in here and none of them are even dirty?!

And here's all you have to do to be eligible:

Tweet, blog (Live Journal, Blogger, Wordpress), or Facebook this contest (any public site that we can view the link to will do) and then post a comment to this post with the links before Wednesday, June 27th (we'll accept entries all the way up to 11:59, Eastern Standard Time).

 You only have to post one link in the comments, but if you chose to do more than one, we'll enter your name into the contest again for each extra one that you do for a total of four entries each person.

You may also specify in your comment whether or not you want to be eligible for all the prizes or just certain ones.

Following this blog isn't required, but we'd love it if you decided to anyway:)

The winners will be drawn using random.org and will be posted on Friday, June 28th.

So what are you waiting for? Go. Seriously. Get busy and ENTER!

First Submissions Deadline Is Looming

Calling all writers! This Friday marks our very first submissions deadline for flash fiction inspired by the photo for this month.

We can't wait to read your work, so don't wait until the last minute to submit! We will post what we feel is the strongest piece of flash fiction that we receive and highlight the writer responsible. AND to further sweeten the deal, we are throwing in a giveaway since this is the very first open submission for Fiction Femme Fatale! The chosen writer will receive a copy of this very awesome book by Veronica Roth:

Just follow the guidelines below and get your entry into us no later than this Friday. We will accept entries right up until midnight that night. Our hope is that this site not only showcases our experiments with flash fiction, but yours as well. So don't delay! Send us your stories today. (I'm even rhyming now in an attempt to get you motivated!)

For the fourth week of each month, we invite you to submit an original thousand word (or less) story inspired by our chosen picture. We will pick one to post on the blog!

There are no rules or boundaries other than these:

• It must be rated PG (no extreme cursing or explicit sexual content. There can be kissing. We like that.)

 

• You must follow this blog.

• It must be geared towards young adults or middle graders.

• Please paste your story into the body of the email to the email address above. We will not open any attachments.

• All stories must be submitted no later than the third Friday of the month. The three of us will review all submissions and come to a collective decision. If we pick your story, we will notify you by email the following Wednesday and your story will post that Friday.
