💡 Still hoping to participate?
We’re always accepting authors for the waitlist, because let’s face it—life happens! If a selected author withdraws, we’ll reach out to waitlisted authors based on genre balance and submission order. There’s no cost to be on the waitlist, and it’s the best way to be considered if a spot opens up.
If you missed the original deadline, you can still complete the author application form here:
