I don’t enter writing contests. I’m not comfortable with the whole contest thing but beyond that, there’s usually an entry fee and my reasoning is that I should never be asked to pay for the publication of my words. What would be the point of that? So when I came across what appears to be a no-entry-fee writing contest, I decided to take a closer look.
I didn’t learn much about the publisher from my quick search. There’s a facebook page here, and a contest website here. There’s a lot more, but the way things are now, with the Internet what it is, I’m still skeptical about the whole business.
Does anybody here know something that they’d be willing to share about daCunha publications?
On the face of it, it looks like a good thing. Got my creative mojo stimulated.

I don’t know anything specific about this publisher. You should check the preditors & editors website listing for them at Absolute Write. However, in general, there are scams related to doing anthologies. Here’s a link about those: http://accrispin.blogspot.com/2011/05/pay-to-play-anthologies.html
