World’s Best Story (WBS) is the first social contest to reward writers and readers who contribute to their search for the next great blockbuster story. And books by two of our reviewers are in the top ten finalists!

The first round of voting whittled the field down to the best one hundred entries and that number was further reduced in early October to the top ten. Two of these authors are recipients of the AI Seal of Excellence, Jeannie Palmer and Paul Hollis. As representatives of Awesome Indies, it would be a great marketing tool for one of us to take grand prize!

During this final round, readers will have one last chance to vote for their favorites while the judges are evaluating the finalists. Every time a reader reviews, rates or votes, the reader will be issued a ticket for a monthly draws and a chance at the grand prize: $2,000.00 shopping spree at Beyond the Rack!

“This is not just a literary contest, we’re looking for stories that will be consumed in multiple media formats – from books to the big screen and beyond,” said Vincent Salera, Founder, CEO and CCO of World’s Best Story. “Our goal is to revolutionize the traditional literary contest and identify a story with mass appeal. We’re looking for a tale that audiences will love and help authors turn that tale into transmedia franchises, which is why we’re empowering readers to judge this contest.”

The Top 10 finalists listed below are currently being judged by a professional panel headlined by best-selling FastPencil PREMIERE author James Kahn, who has written the novel versions of top-grossing films including Return of the Jedi and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. The winner will be announced at the Toronto International Book Fair and awarded the grand prize package from World’s Best Story and FastPencil – the winning title published by FastPencil PREMIERE, trademark protection in the U.S. and Canada, a cross-country promotional book tour, consulting with celebrity authors and more.

It is the intention of World’s Best Story to launch in top grossing markets worldwide and include top grossing languages, curating top 10 finalists in each language at which time there will be a grand international competition that will pit each top 10 finalists against each other in 2016 including the English language finalists below.
