Sounds like a good opportunity, however I did notice that under the awards section it says:

* "Award-winning papers may find its way to both MushWorld website and its publication. All the submitted from award winners are copyright to MushWorld."

I would be sure to do some research before deciding to give up your copyright on any materials of this type.

Good Luck to all who enter!
