Hi everyone!

I'm trying to help out the board members of the Chick Lit Writers of the World chapter. They opened an erotic category last year because they had heard about the difficulties erotic writers have finding contests. They even got ROBERTA BROWN (agent extraordinaire) and HILARY SARES from Kensington to judge.

You can probably guess what happened already. They didn't get enough entries....

SO, I am here to get a vote as to whether it's worth their time to try again this year. They can probably get Roberta and Hilary to judge again but they don't want to ask them and then have to close the category again!

Let me know what you think by voting in the two polls I've set up. Thanks in advance!

Minx

PS This is a contest for unpublished manuscripts only

Minx, I tried to vote but I got an error. I don't have anything that would be eligible at this time, but I hope you get enough entries.

Thanks Natasha. I cast a vote to see if it would work, so I'll consider that vote to be for you! If anyone else has problems let me know and I'll try to post another poll.

You have to vote in both sections of the poll, or you'll get the error message.
(Minx, I added an option for the second question for people who did vote No in question 1, so it doesn't mess up your results.)

Good luck with the contest - those are some great judges!
