Scribbler Synopsis Contest/ How to Apply ($150 Gift Card + Critique)
Scribbler has a mission to help writers in this synopsis contest. The company started with a monthly subscription box. It quickly grew into an e-commerce store, industry newsletter, online community, and digital magazine.
They are working on new products and aspire to grow Scribbler into the largest company catering to novelists in the world.
Victoria Scott started Scribbler in 2017 after traditionally publishing nine books with publishing houses like Scholastic and Macmillan. She couldn’t have done it without a lot of help. That’s why Victoria launched Scribbler, a monthly support system to improve a writer’s craft, inspire them to finish their book, and introduce them to powerhouses in the literary industry, all while giving back to the community. Victoria is an Uber-hailing city girl who loves thick books, frozen margaritas, and long talks with good friends.
Winning awards and contests is often cited as one of the best ways to improve your craft and stand out to literary agents and editors. So Scribbler Contests is here to give writers unique opportunities to enter their work for review by the Scribbler editorial team, which is overseen by a #1 New York Times bestselling author.
A calendar of monthly challenges has been put together and accompanying prizes they are proud to present, which includes things like cash, retail gift cards, reviews by some of the best editors in the industry, and more. So sharpen that pencil, grab a cup of coffee, and find that perfect-fit contest. They can’t wait to read your submission, Scribbler!
