  • <1> What are the evaluation criteria?

    - Whether you'll win the contest depends entirely on the quality of your book. lt will be elevated by our professional editor team. The most important criteria are the content, characters setting and plot development pace. The first three chapters should be able to present enough tension to the readers.

  • <2> Will the number of views and comments be counted as evaluation criteria?

    -They will be seen as references but not determining factors.

  • <3> Is my novel the longer the better?
