Can I make an apology to those people who have sent us queries about competition rules and the like in recent days.

We had a slight technical hitch which meant they got held up in the system. However, we have cleared that now and taken steps to make sure it does not happen again.

So, apologies for the delay and here are some of the answers to a couple of your questions.

Question I am having trouble entering the competition via the website. What might be the problem?

Answer When entering again, and this person had tried to do that having entered in December, you need to re-register as if you are a new person. Perhaps the easiest thing to do is put a 2 after the log in you used before. More details are given on our guidance to entering section on the home page.

Question Can I enter a story that has been published?

Answer: Yes, as long as the copyright remains yours. Many short story writers have work that appears in magazines or on websites and we are happy to have them as entries.
