Darling&Collins Fantasy Short Story Contest 200$ prize

One submission will win a prize of $200, and all submissions can be published, and not paid for. Also, this is very scary to me:

By submitting your work to any of our contests you permanently grant us all commercial and publishing rights.


So, not only winners, or selected manuscripts have the option to publish, but by submitting, you automatically grant permanent publishing rights to this site. Warning! This is not normal! Any legitimate contest will offer an "option" to publish without payment for non-winners, meaning you do not need to sell your rights for free publicity, and also, they will state a time frame after which rights will revert to the author. Please, moderators, take this down. I think it's okay for true members to post links to contests they've found in their usual lists and on the net, and I even agree that those links are "author beware" and no one's responsible for a submission gone wrong where someone doesn't read the fine print, but it's insulting when people make profiles just to post bullshit like this.

 

To all of our members here in Mythic Scribes:

We allow Writing Contests to be advertised in this Forum, since that's one of its legitimate purposes. However, the various contests have their own rules since they belong to other sites and it's up to you, and you alone, to decide whether you want to participate in one or not by means of using your own judgement.

Please keep in mind the Disclaimer that we have as part of How to use the Notice Board:

The fact that a site, event, contest or market is shared in this forum does not constitute an endorsement by Mythic Scribes. We cannot guarantee that everything shared here is as it appears, so please exercise your best judgement.

Thank you.
