Please read the competition rules and the following instructions before you complete the entry form. You may want to print this page to use as a reference while you complete the entry form.
Note for multiple volume entries: Within each category we allocate approximately equal judging time to each entry. If you have an entry of above average length, the judges may not be able to give it as thorough attention as they give other entries. If you have an entry of multiple volumes, consider submitting the volumes as separate entries.
