I had the same question. Can reviewers write stories and participate in this too?

I wrote a short story not long ago and I'd like to apply for the contest. I am a new member, could I know if there are rules with the genre or a specific audience targeted? Thanks!

Super excited about this contest, and completely nervous too! I don't think I've entered any of the short stories I've written into a contest before. Happy writing to all that entered!

Thanks! I've already checked my email, but by reading your comment I got the idea to check my Spam messages and thankfully it's there.

I'm so excited about this, but I really need to know what the copyright situation is. What rights does the author lose/retain after publication/once the non-accepted submitted story appears on the website?

It is a really cool competition though thank you :D
