Well, $49, or $44 with the discount.
Sup with that, NYC? |

It's a regular beef here, the steep entry fees. In NYC's defence: it is about $10 cheaper if you register early; you are getting at least two rounds in this competetion and possibly four; you get feedback from the judges; and last but definitely not least, you get the input of the lovely people here on this forum.
So, yes $50 is pricey, but we're worth it *flicks hair as if in hair commercial*. |

Topanga chimes in, "Yes, we are sooo worth it." *hands on hips facing a little to the side, front leg knee bent slightly, toe pointed, in modeling stance --flicks hair a second later than London, for extra emphasis* |

Too many chicks on this board...
*** JoeK stands stoutly, looking slightly to the Southwest. Perhaps there is something there for him. Something _worthy_ of him. But probably not. I mean there's just nothing there. Not that it isn't worthy. Even "nothing" is worthy of Joe. He thinks so, anyway. He could be wrong. *** JoeK |

First - Hellow Joek! Missed tweeting with you!
Second - what's this with too many chicks on this board? Got news for you -there's one more now! Third - certainly don't want to sound as if I've got loads of dough to throw around, because that's far from the case, but I've been in quite a few contests and I don't recall any being less than $45. Granted, they were all screenwriting contests, but I don't know why short story contests would be any different. Everyone has got to live, even people who sponsor contests. |

this is my first time in the Creative Writing Championsip
or any NYC competition or being on this forum but $50 sounded reasonable to me for a competition with cash prizes and guaranteed feedback and easy setup a lot of magazines and chapbooks charge a fee to just submit for consideration to be printed and you arent even guaranteed a rejection letter so $50 for this sounded good to me and im hoping it kicks me into a writing mood good luck peeps |

But back to a more important point -
Tops really is so worth it. I mean, look at how she's standing! And Londongirl with her flicking hair, my, my, my, those two! They're going to get arrested if they're not careful! |

...not to mention Soot, who after seeing how stoutly JoeK is standing, has locked her husband in the basement... ...and welcome to the looney bin, burstandbloom! Edited by topangarose - 20 Jun 2009 at 5:40am |

Hi Joe, welcome back. How was the move? Joe, Joe? Are you there? Oh, he can't hear me. He's gone to fly a jet plane after having a satisfyingly close shave and stroked his manly chin appreciatively. Which gives me an idea for my bathroom romance ...

wow - a basement in Mobile Alabama. What a concept. Ask your insurance company why I'm strapping him to the roof instead. (besides the fact that he likes it.)
