Voting is now open on the Backspace “This Manuscript HAS to Become a Book!” Scholarship Contest. The top three winners get a free registration to this spring's Backspace, which is a seriously non-trivial chunk of change.
Long-time readers of this journal might notice something familiar about one of the entries, round about, oh, #58 or so. ;-)
I'm still working my way through the last-minute entrants, but so far there's the usual range of quality -- which means that while there's a lot of 'meh' and a few, um, really no, there's also a few gems that wouldn't be out of place on bookstore shelves. Polls are open now 'til March 15. Go, read, vote.
