2004 AABCS Feature Authors

This year celebrates our 5 th Anniversary and in typical AABCS fashion, we want to do something spectacular! We plan for our souvenir booklets to be the best one ever, we would like for it to contain a short story written by each of you, our featured authors.

If you choose to contribute, your story will appear along with your photo and bio in the booklet. Any genre of short story manuscript may be submitted, however, the major theme of the story must be "CRUISE" related. Entries should be 3000 words or less.

We realize that you are busy, but hope that you can find the time to participate. This anniversary edition souvenir booklet will be something all of the participants will treasure for years to come.

Also in conjunction with this event, we are holding our first short story contest for our self-published authors, where 5 lucky winners will be announced on the cruise. The winners’ stories will also appear in the souvenir booklet.

Please let us know as soon as possible if you are interested in participating. If so, submissions should be sent to: aabcs2004@pageturner.net no later than September 1, 2004 to meet our printing deadline.

Thanks so much for being a part of the AABCS family; this year’s event promises to be the best one yet!!!!
