Has anyone else emailed off their 8,000 words to the writing comp and got confirmation?

[farewellfigure]

Hi. Can anyone help...I sent off my 8,000 words to the book publishing competition thingy but haven't had any sort of confirmation email. Then I sent off a really awful 'should we get a confirmation email' email, and still haven't heard back so now I sound really desperate and grabby. There is no chance on this earth that my frankly inferior stab at novel-writing will get anywhere, but I just don't want it floating around in the ether and not arriving at the proper destination!

Has anyone a clue as to what to expect?

HQ any ideas?

There's a novel-writing competition????

Wherewherewhere???

It sounds like a very long piece for a competition...hope they are not just collecting people's writing for their own purposes

I can't find the link to send the excerpt. Where is it? Help!

I was planning to enter too, but finding it hard to see how to do it via Mumsnet website. Thought when I first saw the competition it was rather long as a first submission.

It is still advertised on Janklow and Nesbitt website. Has anyone else entered and had confirmation?

Hey, I submitted my 8000 words along with 500 words of synopsis, on Friday. And yes, I got a confirmation email straight away.

Any update on this competition? It has been a while.
