TorUK and SciFiNow.com are hosting a science fiction publishing contest for new writers who have a whole novel manuscript completed. The winner won’t get an advance on their book (which is supposed to be published in 2010, if the editorial schedule allows) but if they get to the point of receiving royalties, then there’s potential earnings from that. So, tell me, is it worth entering just to get your story published, or do the stipulations of this contract (such as the publisher owning all world rights) hold you back?
