[NEohioPAL] 10-Minute Play Contest at Weathervane - there's still time to enter!

[Deborah Magid]

Dear Playwrights who are submitting, 

Please be aware that those cash prizes are *paid for* by YOU.  In other words, the $10 "administrative" fee funds the prizes.  The vast majority of playwrights – who will *not* be chosen – will award the few "winning" playwrights.  

This would be called pay-to-play, except that MOST of the people supplying the funds won't get to play.    

Just sayin'.
Deb
