Hello Erica. I cannot thank you enough for all these helpful articles. I do receive your newsletter by email and follow you here on Medium.
Since I am fairly new to this, may I ask one question?
When a contest says the submission must “not be previously published” do posts on Vocal and Medium usually count as “published”?
I think not because I believe Medium and Vocal are considered social media writing sites?
Most contests do not provide contacts for questions, unfortunately.
Really appreciate your thoughts on this, knowing that you cannot “speak” for any particular contest.
