C1Blitz Winners Revealed!

The day has finally arrived! The winners of the C1Blitz contest have been announced. Click on the link below to find out who industry pros, teens and peers voted as their favourite chapter ones! 

C1Blitz Winners


HUGE CONGRATULATIONS! 
 
Although the winners have been announced and receive a bunch of incredible prizes, more importantly, every author who took part in this groundbreaking contest has received feedback; feedback, if read, considered and taken on board, can only improve their writing. So really, everyone wins. 

It's been a pleasure to be a part of this contest, and I for one will be keeping a close eye on all the authors who were brave enough to take part. I will be watching for agent signings and book deals, and hoping that in the next Freshly Squeezed contest I will have the chance to read the new polished drafts. 

Good luck to everyone, only good can come of your experiences.
