Dark Faerie Tales & Parajunkee’s View are teaming up for the 1st Annual Supernatural Smack Down.

Your favorite characters are stepping from the pages in the premiere entertainment event of the year! Held in a super secret location, supernatural characters will put their talents to the test in hopes of winning the WORLD CHAMPION SUPERNATURAL TITLE and all the fame and fortune that goes along with it.

Supernatural Gladiators…fighting to the death…(or at least close to it – we don’t want to kill off any of your favorite characters) – winners decided by YOU the reader! Leaving YOU the reader to decide who is the biggest, meanest, supernatural BADASS!

“Dear Lucky Agent” contest

Do you have a fantasy or sci-fi novel (or two) that you are getting ready to pitch? Why not try entering the Guide to Literary Agents “Dear Lucky Agent” Contest? This is the fifth in their contest series, each of which have focused on a specific category. The prizes are all the same though:

• A free one-year subscription to WritersMarket.com.

How cool is that?

What to submit: The first 150-200 words of your unpublished, book-length work of fantasy or science fiction (adult fiction and/or YA fiction; no MG please).
