Our first Gernsback Writing Contest closed with 77 entries.
The stories were distributed to our readers (10) in a randomly assigned fashion. Following lots of reading, 18 of those 77 stories were selected by the readers to move on to the final judging phase.
Those who have not advanced have been informed via email; we wish them the best of luck with their writing careers and urge each and every one of them to consider submitting to future contests.
