    Thanks Susie.

    Is it bad form, or bad karma, or bad anything else (money management?) to multi-sub to competitions? I can't find anything in their guidelines that forbids it.

    It's going to be oh so terribly terribly embarrassing when the same story of mine wins the Bridport and the Auesthetica and . . . and then he woke up.

    Rod, I don't see any reason why you can't multi-submit - they're all looking for something different, probably, you are paying your fee and taking your chance. Go for it!
