Great answers to a great question! Find out the requirements for publishing your work. If a publication requires that your piece or pieces not be published elsewhere, we can help you "unpublish" on the YWP site. Just email sreid@youngwritersproject.org or message Reid@YWP. Note that unpublishing applies to material on our website, including The Voice, but not our annual anthologies, which are printed books. 

The Terms and Conditions that are part of our account signup go into a lot of detail about copyright, but in summary, "YWP retains copyrights to publish your work, but you retain the commercial copyrights to do anything you wish with your piece forever." So YWP has the right to publish your work on our website and anthology and with our third-party media partners and publications, but your work belongs to you. 

I hope this helps answer your question!

I'm just commenting here because I've been having the same question and would like to see the responses- I think if you're using a publishing company you'd have to tell them they are published online. It also might be a good idea to email YWP before doing anything, but I really have no idea

Thanks! I know, they are a bit of a contradiction.

Thanks! I also totally find myself guilty of capturing the moment with a camera instead of enjoying it in the moment, and I think it’s always a good reminder to be here, now.

I am not an expert and do not know the semantics on this, so feel free not to trust me, but I think it might vary depending on who you're publishing with or if you're self-publishing. I would probably inquire with the company before doing anything.

yeah I think because your characters seem hurried and scared they wouldn't worry about spelling but you do what you think
