Angela,

I noticed that I received a royalty as the result of a “contest.” When you get a moment, can you just let me know what that was all about? I’m just curious.

At WritersWeekly.com, we hold a quarterly “24-Hour Short Story Contest.”

1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners receive monetary prizes. Runners-Up winners receive free e-books of their choice from our BookLocker.com bookstore. Even though they don’t pay for the books they select, we pay out the royalties to the authors for those copies. 🙂
