May 2020 Submission Challenge update

Please note, this list is currently a work in progress. I’m posting it here in an “as is” state, which means none of the links have been checked by me yet. The required checks are:-

1) Is it a paying market (includes token pay)?

2) Is the market open at some point during the challenge?

These are the only requirements the markets need to fulfil to qualify for the challenge. As you can see below, the whole month hasn’t been filled yet, but this is easy to fix. All the markets have links, all the spares have links.

I’m fairly sure that all the markets I’ve listed are paying & the ones which have been numbered are open during May. It’s just a matter of doing my checks to make sure.

Once I’ve done those checks, this text will no longer be here.

I’ve left this here so you’ve got a rough idea which markets we’ll be submitting to. This allows you make your story selections well in advance & have them all proofed & ready send once we’re underway.

Feel free to get in touch with me on twitter @RayDaleyWriter if you are interested in taking part!
