To promote her upcoming novel, Wife in the Fast Lane, Karen Quinn is giving away roles in the novel after that, along with other prizes from Canyon Ranch, Sonny’s Diamonds, and Christian Tse, along with other “incentive” awards which will be handed out at various times before the contest deadline of February 15. Entrants are encouraged to share their own stories of accelerated living, humorous or poignant, by either writing an essay (or a quick one-liner) or making a video. The top writers will also get a conference call with Quinn and a chance to speak to Touchstone editor-in-chief Trish Todd* for tips on writing and publishing, while the videographers can have a similar conversation with screenwriter Tracey Jackson (who wrote the 2002 indie The Guru).
*Are there any contests left for Touchstone to align itself with in its effort to find a new, unpublished writer? Seriously; this is starting to look compulsive on their part…
