Network Updates

Welcome to the first World Weavers' Network  contest newsletter!

Participating in the Contest Challenge means I'm watching over a number of WDC contests at the moment. This newsletter is a collection of the contests running this month. This newsletter will also be updated there for any further contests starting or returning from hiatus.

If you participate in any of the short story contests below, remember to post a link to your submission in the World Weavers' Network  forum so I can hand out rewards. To prove you have submitted to a contest, take your post number from the contest forum and leave it in the World Weavers' Network  forum in {post: xxxxxxxx} format.
