Well, now that I think about it... It does hold a bit more weight that you could (theoretically) say that your work was published as a result of a juried contest. I still have to wonder the value of having one's work published in R'sity's book, though. Honestly, I don't know who's going to see it, or care what's in it. Maybe someone in some position of significance would, but I don't know that (and I do have better things to spend the money on ;-). I never enter DAZ contests, though. I won't go into why, but suffice it to say that some of their past contests have left a sour taste in my mouth for various reasons, and now I'd just as soon avoid them. ;-) bonni
