"6. Entries must be submitted via our online form. "

 

I was just wondering:

 

Do I need to put my personal info the attached entry file? 

Or just solely the short story, so whoever read and do the judging will not see who submit the entry?

Thank you Paul for your kind reply. After I posted the question, I checked the webside day after day for three days, and finally decided it was a ghost town. But now I see your words, and wow, my hope for UK "writers and artists" is revived. Thank you again. And good luck to you too!

I would always suggest keeping names off writing entries. The judges won’t want to see names to avoid bias. Leave on story title and page numbers. Good luck!
