Saratov: Mini-Saga Writing Challenge Project results

23.01.2012 | Mini-Saga Writing Challenge Project results

Thus, the allotted time has expired, and it’s time to sum up Mini-Saga Writing Challenge Project results. To be honest with you we did not expect such active participation in this contest. We received 69 literary works in all seven thematic categories (Fairy Tales ¦ Fantasy / Science Fiction ¦ Horror / Crime ¦ Humor ¦ Romance ¦ Drama ¦Mixed). 35 sagas became the winners! All of them were considered to be interesting original works. Many participants e-mailed us sagas for each category. The qualified jury chose winners in each category. All winners will get an award and a certificate on February 22 at St. Valentine’s party and bragging rights for the rest of their lives.
