Samuel Richardson Prize deadline is July 31 + open thread

The rules for the contest are here, but the summary is that entries to the Samuel Richardson Prize should be longer than 40,000 words, and they should've been self-published in the last five years and available to be purchased or read online. There are ten judges, including myself—we will each pick one finalist, and then we will review and rate all the finalists. There is no entry fee and no cash prize—the contest is just about getting more readers and more attention for otherwise-overlooked books.
