What is the Genesis Contest? From the American Christian Fiction Writers’ website:
The Genesis Contest is the ACFW contest for unpublished Christian fiction writers. Genesis has a number of categories/genres to enter, the opportunity for unbiased feedback on writers' work by published authors and experienced judges, and the chance for the category finalists to have their work read by Christian publishing house editors and literary agents. ACFW has been pleased to see many previous category winners and finalists move further in their writing careers to become published authors.
The Genesis Contest is competitive and making it to the finalist round is a huge honor. Deo gratias.
