Some reasons why agents and editors reject manuscripts: http://www.suvudu.com/2010/01/what-i-learned-this-week-why-i-say-no.html

Children's literature contest here. Looks like they want the beginnings of novels and don't charge a fee:

  1. Great informative link, Elma, about the reasons for rejection. Most uplifting of the piece I found was that one can be rejected even if one is a good writer, and secondly that quite a few manuscripts are rejected because they found their way to the wrong person!

    All best,
