I'm just wondering if I can ask people to review my contest entries. Is that legal? It'd be nice to know if i can or not.
Naw man, that's illegal. You're going to jail... You can submit them into the short story section once voting for that contest is over
I think it's felony charge to be exact. Ditto what Patrick said. Once voting is over, you can submit it.
Did you read the contest rules? If you mean a competition on this site, the rules are in the post that describes the theme. Posting the piece anywhere else on the site before voting is closed will disqualify you, as will any attempt to give your entry special attention.
