Literary Contest Caution
"Hidden among the many sponsors of legitimate literary contests advertised on the internet lurk those who care nothing about literature, its audience, or authors. These unscrupulous organizations and individuals exist solely to get into your wallet through their so-called writing or poetry contests. Often you'll find these free poetry contests lavishly advertised in your local newspaper. Before you consider entering any free on-line literary or writing contest you can do yourself a favor by checking out the following links."
