The contest is open to published and unpublished authors not currently contracted with Samhain Publishing.

Only those who enter by posting on our first line contest blog post between 8:00 a.m. EST, June 4th 2007 and 12:00 Noon EST, June 8th will be eligible to participate in the first line contest.

Samhain editors will choose a group of entrants for the next round and the “winning” first lines will be posted on Monday, June 11th.
