Out of more than 2,600 entries, 20 semi-finalists moved on to round two.
But the contest isn’t over yet. Between now and April 25, readers are invited to read, rate, and comment on the second chapters of these 20 entries. Ten of the semi-finalists will move on to the final round.
Since TRACKS is a novel in stories, you can read chapter two even if you haven’t read the first chapter. Each story in TRACKS stands alone, but they connect with other stories to form a larger narrative. The stories don't connect one to the next, but they are woven together as the novel progresses.
Read and rate chapter two, “A Good Beer Needs a Good Stein,” now! Here is the link to chapter two of TRACKS. Enjoy the ride!
