82. Warnings And Cautions For Writers--Writing Contests And Vanity Anthologies The vanity anthology company places ads in various publications (including writers magazines) announcing a poetry contest, with cash prizes for the http://www.sfwa.org/Beware/contests.html

The Koi Wonder Contests and Vanity Anthologies Links checked/page updated 6/3/05 Writing Contests Links Vanity Anthologies Links Writing Contests There are hundreds of literary contests, online and off. Most are real; some are even prestigious. But many are fake. And of the legitimate ones, few are important enough to provide a meaningful addition to your writing resume. Contest Fakes Fake contests come in many different guises, but they all have a common goalto take your money. Some are outright scams. For instance, one fee-charging literary agency advertises a contest where the prize is agency representation. Representation is indeed offered (to everyone who enters), but the catch is that it comes with a hefty editing fee attached. Another agency uses a false name to run its contestentrants are told that even though they didn't win their work is "exceptional", and referred to the agency, which charges an up-front fee. Other contests are run by questionable publishers. Often the prize is a book contract, and the winners don't find out until afterward that they must pay a fee for publication, or agree to pre-purchase large numbers of books, or pay the publisher for a publicity campaign (a good reason never to enter a contest that doesn't allow you to refuse a contract if it's offered). Or the publisher may give the list of entrants to a vanity publishing service or a fee-charging literary agency, which then sends out solicitations and pays the first publisher a kickback if any of the entrants bite.

current issue back issues about editors ... resources Jason Sanford HOW TO EXPOSE NEW WRITERS: ONLINE VERSUS PRINT MAGAZINES So you're a new writer who just finished a short story or poem poised to knock western civilization onto its butt. Trouble is, you're uncertain what to do with it. In your innocence you go to an online discussion board and ask, Where's the best place for a new writer to get published in print or online magazines? Suddenly hell's bells, fireworks and exploding egos. Without knowing it, the new writer has wandering into one of the most argued-about issues in modern literature. Forget debates on first-person present tense narratives or the latest round in the Oprah-Franzen fight. If you really want to start a screaming match simply ask if online magazines are the equal of print publications. I began thinking on this subject after receiving an e-mail from Maryanne Stahl, an author I published in the fall 2001 issue of storySouth . According to Maryanne, the editor of an upcoming anthology (to be published by Crown/Random House) saw her story in storySouth and liked it so much that this editor contacted Maryanne and asked her to submit some work to the anthology.
