Hi!
Not sure if this is the place to ask, but is Semi-Finalist the level where you get feedback from the coordinating judge? If so, I haven't gotten mine yet and I'm not sure if that's normal or if it should have arrived sooner.
Thank you!!

Still no certificate here. Anyone this side of the pond got one?

@wren I was also an SF and haven't gotten my feedback yet either. I'm sure it's coming. I'll post when I get mine, and if you don't mind doing the same? This way we'll know to check the spam folder in case we miss it.
@lusine absolutely!

My certificate has turned up having apparently, according to a blue stamp on the envelope, been "missent to Singapore" (pretty sure I can't blame the Royal Mail for that). Well it's been further afield than I ever have, so it can have a good long rest on the wall with all the others.

Yes.
I received mine Monday, made some adjustments to my story and sent it out. Keeping fingers crossed I'll sell my first story.
Good luck with your story.

I received my certificate for my Q3 story, but not my Q2 story? Should I request another, or just sit tight for now?

Hello, does anyone know of the winner of the fall of 2023? Biggest apologies but I do not know how it works. All the best, Jonny. I did see the name Kyle, but again I'm totally lost I'm not too sure if he had won (episode 24 on the podcast YouTube.)
Hello @jonquill and welcome. Your first submission was for volume 39, second quarter. Which was cycle 39B. This was not a placing story, but the winners were posted here:
https://writersofthefuture.com/writers-of-the-future-2nd-quarter-winners-announced-for-volume-39/
I looked into the system and see you made another entry for this last quarter, so good luck. The forum for that is quarter 1 for volume 40, or as you will see in the system cycle 40A. You can follow the thread here on that one:
Good luck with your writing. There are a lot of helpful people here on the forum and you can check out the free online workshop too.
Best, Jason
