The contest ends in May.
Minimum length for an entry is 50,000 words.
BookHabit is a new sort of internet service where authors can upload unpublished work and make it available for individual sale digitally. The website says:
"The price of a book starts at (USD) 2.50 and increases with its popularity, as indicated by the number of buyers. It is free for writers to post books on the site, and they receive 40% of the sale price – which compares well with the 5% to 12% writers receive on the shelf price of their books sold by retail book stores."
I have my doubts about how popular this sort of service may really be, but I'm curious to see how it does.
The contest looks like it's on the up-and-up to me, but you should be aware that you will not be paid for any downloads of your work until at least 20 downloads have been made. And of course you should read the terms and conditions for yourself.
Anyone going to give it a try?
