previously published perameters
My son created a prototype of my manuscript with blurp to create one copy for me as a Christmas present.
When family members saw it, they wanted a copy. He ordered more until relatives were happy. Blurb has not been asked to sell it, nor have any book stores seen it. Surely that is not previously published! Could you clarify if I am welcome to present a manuscript to your poetry contest?
Thank you for answering, Alex.

Hello, Olivia,
Hello, Olivia,
I'm seeing your note too late for the answer to apply to 2018. However, I'm still replying to clarify things for the next contest (and for those who might have a similar question). The short answer to your question is that given what you've described, no, it has not been previously published and can be entered in the contest.
Best,
...Alex

Do you publish novels, and if so, what genre?
Thank you.

Yes, we do, and they tend toward the literary-type novels.
