This Contest Makes The PRIZE WORTH WRITING FOR!! Each Submitted Story will Require a Registration and Handling Fee of $20.00!!

…Hold on NOW…


Because the final WINNING STORY from among all the participating Writers, Associations, Organizations or schools will then
RECEIVE BACK…

HALF OF ALL THE COLLECTED SUBMISSION FEES!

The FEES will become the MAIN PRIZE!


It will go directly to the Winning Author and the Sponsor!

YOU GOT IT RIGHT…

HALF OF ALL THE SUBMISSION FEES Go Back To The Winner!


Now That's a REAL CONTEST!


The beauty in this Contest is that the more Writers involved in this effort and the more Associations that join in the contest, the greater the return prize!
What Is A Registration And Handling Fee?
And Who Will Pay This?

Sponsors and Contributors!

It's SIMPLE! If a Struggling Writer found that this fee was a little more than he wanted to pay to enter this Global Writers Contest and have his story published at the same time, the registration and handling fee might be paid by a Sponsor. This means that the individual Writer or School, Club or Family could approach a local Business, or a Community Association to Sponsor their Story! Once the request has been presented the willing Sponsor can then come to the TickTalk site and take a look for themselves, and realize the Potential Exposure and Benefits in Sponsoring the Writer and his Story! This could also be a very nice Public Relations move and at the same time a Great Advertisement for the Sponsor, especially if their Sponsored Story WINS the Contest.

The TickTalk Publishers goal is to eventually acquire an interactive Global participation for each seasonal Contest. This will increase the PRIZE to a sum that very few will be able to ignore. Once our Contest begins its work, it could be one of the most exciting ways of involving New Writers in attaining their Publishing Goals!

But That's Not All!

Because, each accepted story will not only be entered into the Global Story Contest but will be Published in this Story Networking Site!


The Winning Story will be featured in our "Featured Story" section and this means that it has the greatest exposure to all Publishers!
 

The Winning Author will then get a personal Profile placed into the Featured Writers section, which means there is now a nice personal write-up on the New Winning Author.


 Still, this is not all! The Winning Story will receive preferential treatment within our advertising campaign to all our Associated Publishers!


 The Second and Third place Stories will also receive PRIZES that will be offered by our Supporting Sponsors. These prizes could range from Computers to Incredible Programs, but no one will be left empty handed!


 The Winning Story will also become a part of the TickTalk Featured Collection. This means that as we collect Stories from our various Contests, they will be placed into our CD Collections and become a permanent part of the Print and Electronic Media and all the submitted Stories will then be made available back to all participating Writers, Associations and to all interested subscribers. This means that the Author or Association could then distribute the Global Story Collection to families, friends or School Libraries.


In order to advance our unique program and bring forth its full benefit to all our participants we will need the help of all associated individuals: Schools, Institutions, Teachers, Educators, Administers, Businesses and Parents. Our subscribers and contributors can spread by all participating Writers and the news of this fantastic and most unusual competition.

Students themselves might distribute this CONTEST as a school project, using one of the GREAT COMMUNICATION TOOLS of this age to broadcast the MESSAGE…

We seek to develop and strengthen the ties that bind hearts and minds, families and friends by illustrating in words the power of a story! Which in and of itself has the ability to foster lifelong memories and personal relationships; as well as to engender respect for that special quality of life called "Human Nature," one story at a time.
You can be assured that your Story will be read and gone over carefully, scrutinized in all respects and consider for its content, presentation, creativity and its originality.

Good Writing and the BEST OF INSPIRATIONS!
