Writer Unboxed (via, as so often, Chris the Story Reading Ape) is hitting on all cylinders these days. Here’s an extremely useful post detailing how to assess a publishing contest BEFORE you enter! Thanks to Susan Spann for this excellent list. Read the comments, too.
Reblogged this on Memoir Notes.

Thanks for reminding us! I’ve only done a couple of contests, so far with no calamities. But I’ll be extra careful in the future.
