The winners are also invited to an exclusive writers workshop where Kevin and Rebecca share practical insights on the business of writing.

She is a mother, grandmother, final reader and copyeditor on her husband’s manuscripts, CEO of WordFire, Inc., (the company she and Kevin own), a freelance editor, and Publisher of WordFire Press.
A devout gadgetologistTM, Rebecca claims, “If anything electric, electronic or mechanical is the newest, the latest and best, I will undoubtedly want one. Indeed, I must eventually own one.”
Rebecca has traveled extensively. The only continent she and her husband have not visited together—yet—is Antarctica.
