Prizes

Admin · 05-29-2006, 04:18 PM

I've decided to give a $300 USD first place prize to the winner of the annual contest.

This will be delivered by check, paypal, or online gift certificate if you prefer.

RobinHood3000 · 05-29-2006, 05:56 PM

Whoa.

That's one way to get people motivated.

sHaRp12 · 05-29-2006, 09:19 PM

Is it only for the winner. How about 2nd or 3rd. Maybe you could ship them a book of their choice or a book from your collection.

Admin · 05-29-2006, 11:18 PM

Just 1st place.

Shannanigan · 05-30-2006, 11:06 AM

Hey...maybe I should write a story

heehee....

Asa Adams · 06-01-2006, 03:14 PM

This is great! Just a simple question. So if i were to have a story prepared for August, I would submit it by the first of that Month? For the voting process of that month? Or would I submit it a little earlier for the Admin/moderators to process?

Scheherazade · 06-01-2006, 07:38 PM

Hi Asa,

We do not process the submitted stories -as long as they fulfil the entry requirements- and they appear the way they are submitted. However, it would be a good idea to submit your story sometime in July to be included in the August poll. I usually set up the polls on the 1st of each month so you might be a little late if you wait till that very day.

You can find more about the rules here: http://www.online-literature.com/for...ad.php?t=16585

Wow, thanks alot. That was very helpful!

tulysg1982 · 05-08-2007, 06:07 AM

is there any limitation in topics of the story?

Jay · 05-08-2007, 08:16 AM

As long as your story doesn't break any of the forum rules, I think everything else is pretty much a fair game, Tulysg. Also make sure to read the Competition rules if you'd like to participate

(so get posting to be able to take part!

)

While $300 is pretty sweet, I think some SERIOUS recognition for first would be in order, as well as for second and third.

((That would make an awesome 2nd & 3rd place prize, too, a special recognition deal. I dunno, devoute an announcement to them or something.))

pinkmoon · 08-01-2007, 10:03 AM

I just want to know when the last date is
I mean the last date for us to post the story
if you please

hedbanger · 09-06-2007, 06:16 PM

May I ask why the prize is in USD? =)

Scheherazade · 09-06-2007, 06:30 PM

Because this site is based in the USA and the owner is an American as well.

pinkmoon · 09-07-2007, 01:28 PM

Does that mean we do not get it if we were outside America?
