If you have a love story to tell, Leader Publications wants to hear about it.

From now until Jan. 23, Leader Publications is asking readers to share how they fell in love in 300 words or less for a new contest, “Love Stories.”

The best love stories, as voted on by readers, will receive a variety of prizes and be featured Feb. 9 in a special Valentine’s section of Off the Water.

Love stories can be submitted, read and voted on at the contest webpage. Just follow the link found on the “Contest” drop down tab on all Leader Publication websites. The contest page can also be found under contests on Leader Publication Facebook fan pages.

The deadline for submitting a love story is Jan. 23. Voting will begin Jan. 24 and end Feb. 1.

Love Stories is one of three Leader Publication contests available now, including the 2011 Year in Review photo contest and the College Bowl Game contest.
