RE: [GWL]: GWAA awards entry fee
I've heard it said more than once that "real" awards do not have entry
fees. Another variant is: Any award you have to apply for isn't worth
much. (Even if the application is free.)
I'm inclined to agree with both statements. Frankly, in my book, any
award that only considers those who specifically apply is of seriously
questionable significance. Any award process that charges a stiff fee
for application is REALLY not to be taken seriously. I think the GWAA
award may be getting exactly as much attention as it deserves -- none.
If GWAA can't do awards without charging fees, perhaps it shouldn't be
doing them at all.
