We have had a few questions about length. 500 words is a general guide. However, it is more important that you develop a good story about your chapter. We won't be sticklers on word count.

 
Doug.Agee said on Monday, March 10th, 2014

We have had serveral deadline questions and are extending the date for submission. Please stay tuned for more details. Thanks for all the submitted stores and looking forward to more to come.

 
Doug.Agee said on Thursday, March 13th, 2014
