Anyone know when the next writing contest is/or how to enter it? I have to find a different outlet for my work on this site, besides collecting dust.

A great place to check is here which includes official WDC contests:

Lastly, just scrolling through the newsfeed you’ll find people promoting their contest.

Good luck on your submission(s)! *Smile*
Thanks for mentioning "The Contest ChallengeOpen in new Window., . . . Jeremy! *Heart*

Darkscape Entertainment, when . . . Jeremy said to check the newsfeed, be sure to check the COMMUNITY newsfeed, not just your personal newsfeed.

When you click "Newsfeed" on the left, it takes you to your personal newsfeed where you only see official WdC stuff and things from people whose heart you've clicked ones (to fan them) or twice (to set them as a favorite).

Along the top of you personal newsfeed, you'll see "View the Community Newsfeed." Click that and you'll see what everyone is posting (within your rating limit) so you'll see new contests, new activities, and new friends. I recommend checking the community newsfeed regularly -- daily is ideal, but at least a few times a week.

Best of luck finding something you're interested in! On "The Contest ChallengeOpen in new Window., you can also check the "Previously Highlighted Contests" dropnotes for other contests, though not all will be open.
How do you enter your works in a contest? Or, do you have to pay for that too?
Every contest has specific rules. It's best to ask a contest host directly if the rules on the page aren't clear enough.
As a general rule, you don't ever have to pay to enter a contest on this site, but you have to have a paid membership for some of the contests with the highest prizes.

Hi Darkscape Entertainment Author Icon. Welcome to WDC!

If you'd like folks to check out your writing, it'll help if you include a link to the item(s) in your portfolio. We are a lazy lot around here, or at least some of us are. *Wink* To link your work, write the code like this: {item:#######} or {bitem:#######} with the item number in place of the #'s. If you use item, you'll get a simple text link; bitem will give you a snazzier, more eye-catching link. If you're linking to your book with nine chapters, I'd suggest giving a bitem link to the first chapter and letting folks go from there. If you enter {item:2325522} it'll appear as "Chapter 1Open in new Window.. Typing in {bitem:2325522} will show in your post like this:
 Chapter 1 Open in new Window. (E)
The Dark Society

It's also a great idea to review the work of other members of the community. Reviewing one another's work is how we learn and grow–both by reviewing and being reviewed. For guidelines on how to give reviews on WDC, check out "Reviewing On Writing.ComOpen in new Window. from
