The biggest complaint that people we spoke to had with writing competition was ‘entry fees’. It seemed that people were very against the idea of submitting stories, handing over money and never hearing a single word back from the competition. The second biggest complaint that people we spoke to had with competitions was that once they had entered they heard nothing back…not a word. What on earth happened to their money? Did anyone ever read their story?
Well, The Fantasy-Faction Anthology looked to address these concerns by introducing Entry Plus. Entry Plus is an optional way to enter your story. For just £7.00 the judge that reads over your piece will write up a full paged critique on your work, what they liked about it, what they were less fond of, and more importantly how it could have been made better.
It is important to note that whether or not you chose to submit via Entry Plus, you stand the exact same chance of winning. There will be no favoritism or biased showed towards those that choose Entry Plus.
