Miss Snark's First Victim & the Baker's Dozen

Two posts in one day! I had the MeeGenius one below queued up for auto post, but I ran across a great opportunity through Monica B.W.'s blog that is time sensitive, so I'm posting this too.
Miss Snark's First Victim is running their 2nd annual Baker's Dozen Agent Auction. No, you don't get to bid on agents--it's actually the agents who will be bidding on your work!
The details:
* $8 entry fee
* Submission dates vary for MG/YA and adult titles, so be sure to read those carefully on the page linked above, but YA/MG is set for Nov. 1 & 3
* Submit your logline and first 250 words of your polished manuscript
* The 60 winning entries will be posted for critique, and hopefully requests from agents in which they bid with the number of pages they'd like to see--up to a full manuscript.
Sounds like a fun project to me; even if you don't experience the thrill of a bidding war, you should still come away with some valuable feedback. Monica says the spaces fill fast (and she got her agent through the last one), so don't hesitate if you're interested!

LOL, I was thinking about that (RE: bidding on agents too! Haha!)
Anyway, thanks for posting a link to my blog! :D
I love Miss Snark's contests! I just wish Franken-novel was ready. Maybe next year.
