Default Writer's Digest Contest

My manuscript placed fourth - good for $100, $50 worth of books, and a 'deluxe edition' of the Writers Market - oh, and a certificate [!]

How about if we congratulate you, Frank, without all the other evaluations?

Writer's Digest is a big operation and probably has no choice but to do paperwork for the feds, alas. I had to do those forms to get paid by a mag recently. I did 'em and didn't give it a thought. But then I'm just greedy.

Seriously, congratulations. That manuscript will find a publisher.

I didn't mean to be churlish about it - merely baffled. Thanks.

Frank

Congrats, Frank. Sounds like enough to buy a few bottles of champagne, at least!

Thanks,

Bill
