I’m a member and moderator at YaLitChat. If you haven’t heard of us take a look because within one year (as of last Tuesday) we have over 1800 members. Many are published, many are seeking publication, but all are there to support and learn and produce the best writing for YA and MG readers as they can.
For the month of November we’re hosting a great contest for writers who have taken on the NaNoWriMo challenge. If you’re a YaLitChat member you can enter to win:
*A KINDLE
*A 20 page critique by a leading industry Agent or Editor (We have wonderful agents/editors who have joined our YAlitchat family)
*A bookpack of Rampant by Diana Peterfreund plus 2 books from Harper
CONTEST DETAIL:

Glad you stopped by, Lydia. Be sure to say hi when you come to YaLitChat.
I'm not doing Nano this year but this contest looks amazing! I haven't joined YAlitchat but it's probably time I do.
Nice to meet you!
