Paying Market: OakTara Publishers is Looking for Great Love Stories

Post date: 27 May 2012
Deadline: 15 June 2012

Want to get your foot in the door in publishing? Or to expand your current publishing credits? OakTara Publishers is looking for new authors and growing authors like you who have a great falling-in-love story to tell—or who know someone who has a falling-in-love story they’d be willing for you to write on their behalf.

When did you know you were in love with your special someone? How did it happen? We’d love to hear all the wonderful details! We’re looking for the best falling-in-love boyfriend/girlfriend or husband/wife stories to publish in a special inspirational anthology in fall 2012 that will be available through OakTara and selected distributors.

If your story is chosen, you’ll receive either a cash award or a royalty percentage of net retail sales, plus complimentary copies of the book. And you’ll be a published author, with a credit to add to your growing publishing résumé! This is the first of several anthologies, so stay posted for other opportunities to be published beyond this first book!

Send entries in ONE EMAIL to: tellusabout@oaktara.com

Include: 1) the title of your story; 2) your name; 3) a story of 1200-1500 words; and 4) a 30-50 word author bio, including a personal website or blog link (if available). All entries must be written from the perspective of a Christian worldview but to reach a broad audience (those who wouldn’t necessarily understand “Christian terminology/jargon”).
