One entry had the author's name on the first page. One entry did not include an entry form. One entry was single spaced. While our rules didn't specifically forbid the use of bold text, it's hard on the eyes and editors won't tolerate it. For the most part, short fiction is written in the past tense with the exception of actual dialogue, which is always done in present tense.
Some authors choose to write their entire story in present tense.
Which is fine, provided they keep to it and don't switch back and forth between present and past. A few entries actually confused the meaning of what they were stating by constant switches of tense. One is the common 'to' meaning to go, to do etc. The third is 'too' as in 'too much of a good thing' or in this case 'too much of a bad thing' since in this sense an extra 'o' is needed to convey your meaning. Also encountered were 'preyed' when the author meant 'prayed', 'bearing' when the author meant 'baring' and 'plane when the author meant 'plain'.
