This is a game of skill; chance plays no part in determining the winners. Each entry will be individually judged based on its literary and creative merit of the Submission. The judges’ decision in relation to any aspect of the competition will be final and binding on every person who enters. No correspondence will be entered into.
The entrant warrants to the Promoter that the Submission is an original literary work of the entrant that does not infringe the rights of any third parties.

Errors and omissions will be accepted at the Promoter's discretion. Failure by the Promoter to enforce any of its rights at any stage does not constitute a waiver of those rights.

The next two (2) best valid entries, as determined by the judges, will be deemed the runner up prize winners and will each win a $200 Hachette prize pack. Each Hachette prize pack includes a selection of books.
