The Kansas City Food Guys would like to announce a summer essay and photo contest.  We will be accepting written essays over the summer entitled “My Favorite Place to Eat in Kansas City“.  Essays should be 600 to 2000 words in length describing your favorite place to eat in KC.  While this might be your own dinner table we are looking for essays on local food venues open to the public.  Essays should be an original work and submitted to essay@KCFoodGuys.com.  Photos should also be original works and can be sent to the essay email or posted on our Facebook fan page or tweet us on Twitter.

Prizes will be award for the top entries and we should have a prize list published by the end of May.  Entries for the contest will be accepted until July 31st, 2016 and winners will be announced on August 29th.  All essays will be considered for a book to be published later this year with a portion of the proceeds of the first edition going to support the Kansas City Union Mission.

By submitting an essay or photo you are providing all rights of the work, including copyright, to SOI, LLC with the knowledge that your essay may be edited and published in book, ebook, or website at later date. Please provide your name, city, and state as you would like it to appear if your essay is selected for publication.

We hope to select 25+ essays for the book so even if you don’t win you may still get your work published.  Good Luck and we look forward to hearing where KCFoodGuy fans like to eat.  Multiple entries per author are allowed.
