The 2010 DAWN THOMPSON MEMORIAL
HAUNTED HEARTS CONTEST

"I found the quality of the submissions unusually high.  I'm very glad I participated in the judging." - Alicia Condon, Dorchester

"This has been the most enjoyable contest I've judged. Every entry was strong." - Susan McCarty, Berkley 

Dawn ThompsonTHE GOTHIC ROMANCE WRITERS, Inc. (GOTHROM) chapter of Romance Writers of America® proudly announces the sixth annual DAWN THOMPSON MEMORIAL HAUNTED HEARTS contest.

The late Dawn Thompson was the first winner of Gothic Romance Writers' Haunted Hearts Contest and it helped propel her on to her successful, but all-too-brief career. We miss her. This is what Dawn said about the contest:

"As a former winner of the Haunted Heart for my Historical Paranormal, THE RAVENCLIFF BRIDE in 2004, I cannot recommend this contest highly enough.  It is run by professional, responsible authors committed to excellence in the art of writing Gothic Romance.  This prestigious win encouraged me to persist until I sold in 2005.  Several authors went on to sell after winning and finalling in the Haunted Heart.  It's magical!"

-- Dawn Thompson

NOTE

The contest is on hold right now
