Hey this looks like a really cool competition! I was wondering though, what rights are required if you enter? I know in the guidelines it says the story should be exclusive, but what exactly does that mean?

Hi. I was wondering if there was a certain topic/genre? Also, is this competition worldwide? And can those under the age of eighteen enter? Because I'm sixteen and from Ireland and I would love to enter.

HEY I have this story that I really want to enter into the short story contest but it's also uploaded onto another site :( called 'wattpad' It's entered into the Watty awards there, would it be fine if I enter the story in here and still keep it up on wattpad?
And if --hypothetically speaking-- I win :/ I would take it down.

Is all this okay? :oops:
