About March Contest: The first round will only open from 22 March 00:00 (GMT +8) to 25 March 23:59 (GMT +8). This is a first come first serve basis and we will only be accepting 10 participants for this round.
March is the month that signifies the meteorological beginning of spring and we have decided to start off with a special writers' series. In this round, participants will be submit their book's cover and the book's blurb. It could be any book you have on Wattpad- it must be your original work. The book cover can either be done by you or by someone else but you will have to clarify in the google form. Since we're aiming to help underrated writers, we will only be accepting participants who have less than 5K reads :)
So if you're someone who is wondering how your blurb and your cover make an impact on your readers, join this now! We will be judging the entries and providing a review for ALL participants at the end of this contest.
How To Win: The best combination of cover and blurb that can make us feel hooked to read your work, wins. We are judging your book based on first-impressions. This is important to draw readers, and one of the most common rookie mistakes is to have a poor blurb but a very nice cover, or vice-versa. Or that both needs work, and this contest will get you some pointers.
