I just submitted a short story the other day, actually, for their "Very Short Fiction Award." It is very short, too--about 600 words. I tried to elaborate on it, but decided it was better the way it was. At any rate...all I've heard is that they've received it. Winner to be announced Oct. 31.
This is only the second contest I've entered. The other was a War Poetry contest, and I'll hear by Nov. 15. I have to say, I've always been wary of entering contests, but it was always my hang-ups, not theirs. Just the fact that I have clicked on the "submit" button twice now, well, it's done wonders for my confidence levels!
