Aspiring authors who think their story could become a smash hit in films, video games, graphic novels or merchanise as well as in book form are invited to upload their title, cover, blockbuster concept and sample chapter to FastPencil or at WorldsBestStory.
'This is not just a literary contest, we’re looking for stories that will be consumed in multiple media formats – from books to the big screen and beyond,' said Vincent Salera, founder, CEO and CCO of World’s Best Story. 'Our goal is to revolutionize the traditional literary contest and identify a story with mass appeal. We’re looking for a tale that audiences will love and help authors turn that tale into transmedia franchises, which is why we’re empowering readers to judge this contest.'
The winner's title will be published by FastPencil PREMIERE, with a cross-country promotional book tour in the US and Canada.
Readers are invited to review and vote on stories.
The closing date for writers to submit their blockbuster is 13 August.
