The Wisconsin Romance Writers of America Fabulous Five contest is open for
entries!
For over twenty years, we’ve provided detailed critiques to all entrants and
an opportunity for the top five in each category to get their work in front
of key editors and agents in the publishing industry. Our fees continue to
be among the lowest for contests of this type – just $18 for WisRWA members
and $20 for all other entrants.
This contest is available to writers unpublished in book-length romance
fiction during the past five years. All entries must be limited to the first
2,500 words of your manuscript and must be submitted electronically. For an
entry form and complete details regarding rules and eligibility, click the
