How r Lit mags that run constant entry-fee writing contests diff than when poor people are targeted to buy lottery tickets?:
1) Lottery proceeds in theory go to fund public initiatives.
2) Single lottery tickets are much much cheaper than most contest entry fees.

I am beginning to understand why this app has so few followers. Resetting my login was like breaking into Fort Knox. Finally after 3 weeks I see two new followers and no posts.

Received a tiered rejection from the Sun Magazine! I don't like to brag but I may make as much as $100.00-$150.00 dollars with my writing this year! In 900 AD I would be one of the richest....ok upper middle class, in the village.

Just got followed by an avowedly-authoritarian political party. Though themes seems fascist while carefully avoiding specific racism. Not sure why they came here, where the members tend to be more to the left, but maybe they plan to change that. Yikes. Now blocked.
