Mslexia Comp - deadline March 2012

Island Girl

Hi all, I've received a note from Jenny about a Mslexia comp and she thought it worth a mention for any of you that might be interested in it. Closing date: 19th of March, 2012.

Details here: http://www.mslexia.co.uk/whatson/msbusiness/scomp_active.php

There is an entry fee (£10 in the UK) and the offer of a critique ... at £45 for one story.

I have a feeling this has been 'done' IG, but that might have been in a previous year.
IMO, £10 is too steep, and as for £45 for a critique ...
It ain't personal and thanks for posting but ... go jump!

I thought the critique price was a bit steep considering the length.

Posted only as a reminder to TBers and as a favour to Jenny, Ceka. Personally, I think £45 is shocking. And judging from the many exclamation marks !!!! Jenny attached to that note when she sent it through to me, then I'd say she wasn't too enamoured of the fee either. I wonder how many people actually go for it, though?

There'll always be some with more money than sense. :)

Or more desperation perhaps?
