Contest Brief

*READ COMPLETELY BEFORE SUBMITTING ENTRIES*
This contest is for people who can come up with an idea for a book that is either: CREATIVE WRITING(fiction of some sort)= If you choose fiction, it will need to be a unique and stimulating story, before you start writing, ask yourself if you'd (and many other people) not only pay for the book, but be very intrigued by it. If an entree meets or exceeds my expectations, there will be more work to come.
NONFICTION- with this option, i'm still looking for a quality idea that will stand out. It can't be just like other books that are already published. The nonfiction could be informative--it could be a guide of some sort, self-help, a personal story or choice(we'd have to talk more about this)
If you find a NICHE that you believe has a lot of followers who will buy the book, that could work well, too.

You basically have free reign with this. The most important thing in the winning entree will be that it is quality; it must be interesting and unique.
What you need to do:
Enter a extended outline for book. This will include a working title, an introduction(for me) summarizing the plot/contents of the book and its purpose, chapter titles and what will happen or be explained in each chapter. The more specific, the better. The more you write, the better, obviously. You may also want to add your reasons for choosing what you did and why you think it should win.

What will not win: A few paragraphs describing an idea.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to message me. I'd rather you be as informed as possible when you start to brainstorm write. I want the best possible outcome, so I'm here to help.
MUST BE ORIGINAL CONTENT. NO PLAGIARISM .

The better your idea and content, the better your chance of winning AND getting more than just the contest winnings. I'm hoping to find a talented ghostwriter, I know that there are so many talented new freelancers on here, and I know how hard it can be to get that first job. (This contest clearly also open to experienced freelancers)This could result in long-term work if interested.

Please only enter if you're going to spend time on this and take it seriously. No bare-bones outlines will win. Very detailed outlines will have the best chance.

If I receive several quality entries, Runner-Ups will be awarded.

    Hi, I was wondering whether this would be a one-off thing. Are we just giving you our ideas and leaving, or would they be taken further, and possibly made into books? If so, would we have any further input. I'm just curious.

      Sealed means other freelancers can't see what you submit which is probably a good idea for this contest because people will be submitting book outlines. Guaranteed means the contest holder will have to award someone when the contest closes.
