Inspiring Stories of Animals Who Comfort and Heal Children- Contest

 

http://www.angelanimals.net/contestrules.html

Authors, Linda and Allen Anderson of Angel Animals Network, run heart-warming, authentic contests and this is their latest one.  Deadline is September 15th, 2010.  There is also no entry fee and I personally have worked with Linda and Allen and have found them great to work with.  Their last contest I placed 2nd and will have the distinct honor of having my story published by New World Library in “Dogs and the Women Who Love THem: Extraordinary True Stories of Love, Healing and Inspiration” Fall 2010.  So check out their newest contest and give it a try!

The Angel Animals Network 2010 True Story Contest is now accepting submissions of real-life stories that depict the healing bond between children and a wide spectrum of animals — dogs, cats, horses, birds, rabbits, gerbils, ferrets, rabbits, any family pet or animal in nature. The story should show an animal helping children, parents, or families to deal with difficult situations and circumstances.

Stories must be original, not copyrighted by anyone else, and based on real animals, people, and events.

For judging and awards, preference will be given to emotionally evocative and well-written narrative nonfiction stories. Please do not submit journalistic articles, profiles, testimonials, essays, or fiction for this contest.
