I did not enter this contest in 2009 but I did send a check for a copy of the collection. If I recall correctly, it was supposed to come last August and never did.
Has anyone else had this problem? Needless to say, I'm skeptical now.

I am confused about the dates ....  "Add $5 per manuscript to all entries postmarked after May 15, 2009. Entries postmarked after June 01, 2009, will not be accepted."

I get their newletter and their magazine. Both are excellent!!!
