Question:

What are the qualifications of people doing the critiques, their backgrounds, and works they have had published?

Answer:

That varies. Everyone has a different background. We have published authors writing reviews. And there are also those that are just getting started writing.

Question:

Is this website safe to post your writing? will it be plagiarized?

Answer:

As far as I can gather as I was there ten (10) minutes ago where I was offered the chance to enter a free poetry contest if I updated my mebership - for a fee of course. Anybody who believes this is a place where a writer can improve himself is living in a dream world and deserves to be fleeced by these gangsters. As they say: There is one born every minute.

Question:

What are the requirements to enter a contest?

Answer:

Each contest has its own criteria. Usually a minimum and/or maximum word count limit. With some contests you must pay "member cents". (Member cents are earned from writing reviews, or are bought outright). There averages probably about one new contest a day. With so many, winning one is not that big of a deal. The exception is the "site contests." (All the other contests are put forth by the members). Site contests cost nothing to enter, and often provide a cash prize of up to $100. So winning site contests is much more prestigious than the other ones. Plus, many of the member contests have very few entrants.

Question:

Is it worth the money?

Answer:

We think so! With upgraded membership you can enter all contests with cash prizes. That's $5,000 in prizes this year! Membership is only $9.95 per month (with discounts available for our one year or two year membership). You will also get feedback for everything you write.

Question:

I see that i can get help regarding writing. can anyone offer help on actual publication?

Answer:

The site itself has a publication service to help you get your work published. I never used it so do not know how valuable it is.

Question:

Can i see reviews for tin tuxedos please?

Answer:

My guess is that you'll have a much better chance for a response if you ask that question on the site itself!
