"November is National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) in which new writers are encouraged to figure out a way to write an entire 50,000 word novel in 30 days (which is a little over 1600 words a day).

Last year more than 100,000 writers participated, and every year one or two of them get published.
We'd like to increase the odds.
Ravenous Romance novels are 50,000 - 60,000 words. We love finding new writers. So, we'd really like you to write a 50,000 word novel for RR.
Although we publish just about every category of erotic romance, our readers are anxious for more M/M/, paranormal and menage. We'd love to see more science fiction erotic romance, or what we cal Futurotica. And, of course, we always love good contemporary and historical novels.
Our guidelines are up on our website: http://www.ravenousromance.com/images/stories/ravenousromancesubmissionguidelines.pdf
So, from Dec. 1 until New Year's Eve, send us your completed NaNoWriMo erotic romance, and if we think you're good enough, you might win a contract, as well as a $200 advance. Your novel will be published in 2010. Should your work be chosen, we'll interview you on the RR blog and the RR Ning, so you can share your story.
Should the submissions merit it, we'll give out first, second and third place awards, but every novel published will get the $200 advance.
We're looking forward to publishing your NaNoWriMo novel!
Send completed novels, with an outline and a author bio, to: submissions@ravenousromancecom."
