The Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award (ABNA) is a contest that gives authors a chance to win $15,000 and a publishing contract from Amazon. Every year, authors can submit the first 5,000 words of a novel, along with a synopsis and cover art. Amazon then selects 100 semi-finalists and the public can vote for their favorite novels. After that, five finalists are chosen, who must then submit the full manuscript of their novel. Finally, a panel of experienced judges chooses one winner. So if you are a writer and want to get published, you can try entering the ABNA and maybe you will be chosen!
