Anybody Else Submit to MWA's First Novel Competition?

(Don't know if there's an existing thread on this topic; my many searches have come up blank, so my apologies if I missed it.)


The winner is supposed to be notified by the end of March. My question is, do they notify the also-rans as well?... or is it like another query letter that goes unanswered. Thanks.

And the answer is... crickets!


So, the competition ended a week ago and I've heard nothing, which confirms what I found elsewhere after making my original post: that MWA notifies only the winner (if there is one, which isn't always the case).


In other words, as with many agents, no response means no.


Okay. Moving on....
