1. Rewrite Victorian Vampires for Fun & Prizes

To celebrate Mediabistro’s upcoming Media App Summit, we are hosting The World’s Longest Literary  Vampire Remix writing contest.

Follow this link to sign up for our new writing contest. With the help from writers around the country, we will rewrite Varney the Vampire–a bestselling vampire novel from the 19th Century filled with enough star-crossed romance, vampire action and purple prose to inspire another Twilight trilogy.

You will rewrite a small section from the book your own unique style (from poetry to Twitter updates to cartoons to imitations of your favorite writer). We will publish the final product as a free digital book (complete with Victorian-era illustrations) that anyone can download. Every contributing writer will receive a byline, a short biography and a website link in the remixed novel. In addition, we will reprint our favorite remixed passages and share your work with Mediabistro readers.

Intrigued? You can sign up at this link.
