The requirement to wait ten days...

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I've done a few of these competitions and have always been a little confused...

When we're asked to wait until ten days after the results are posted to share our stories, does that mean the round results, or the actual results?

So for example, if I enter short story in January, and say I don't make the cut for round one. Am I free to post my story ten days after the round one results come out, or do I need to wait until the end of July when the winners for the entire contest are announced? And if I did get through round one...same answer?

Thanks!

	I'm pretty sure it means you have to wait for the round results.

	So just to clarify, because I was confused too, does this mean we can post our Microfiction Round 1 stories to our personal blog/social media now? Since 10 days have elapsed since round results were announced?
