Sponsor

We have our very first sponsor and guest judge! Storyletter XPress will be sponsoring season three, and the founder Winston Malone will be our guest judge. From three finalists he will choose the winner and honorable mentions. You can read more about Storyletter XPress on their Substack. You might remember Winston as the winner of our First Chapter category from season two.

Prizes

This season we’ll give away our first prize pack to the winner!

  1. A six-month paid comp to Storyletter XPress Access. Read about the great benefits Winston is giving the winner.

  2. A six-month paid comp to the Lunar Awards, which grants you 7-day early access notification for the next award season.

  3. A $25 monetary prize. US residents may choose either PayPal (minus fees), an Amazon.com e-gift card or a Bookshop.org e-gift card. International residents will be paid via PayPal in participating countries.

Before submitting, please read the FAQ, which contains the complete rules. Ask in the comments if you have questions. The judging period is 7-14 days after the deadline before a winner in either category is announced.
