Notes
* = In order for the prizes to be paid, we must receive enough submissions to warrant a fair and complete competition. We hope critical mass to be about 50 stories, but could honor the prizes for less if the quality warrants it.
** = The Dorveille Vignettes is the working title of the anthology of the submitted short stories, as well as hopefully a few featured stories from published authors. The book is currently being shopped to publishers, however if they do not purchase it, it will be self-published. We will discuss royalties with winners and other accepted stories.
