<p>@ kseajayne: Yeah, I really want to enter the Scholastic Art and Writing this year. I couldn’t make the deadline last year as I started in late Jan/early Feb so hopefully I can enter some decent shots this year. Just wondering - why does it have an entry fee? I was looking at it a couple of months ago and my parents kind of discouraged me from entering since it has a fee, and according to them, all the competitions with fees are total scams. It seems like an established competition, so I have no doubt it’s legit, but I was just wondering what the entry cost was for. </p>
<p>I basically Google “photography contests” and I especially take note of the yearly ones. If I missed the deadline, it doesn’t matter - I record all the contests I find in a Word document and I note the approximate time of year it takes place in. That way, when it’s near that month, I just find that contest again and enter it. Hopefully that helps (:</p>
