Contest? There's a query contest? May I ask where the rules to this contest are?
I wasn't aware of a query contest either. Is this a new contest starting now, or an existing contest for which we are too late to enter? If we are still able to enter please provide the information as to where to send our work, and the rules of the contest.
Here's the correct info. Thanks!
