This one's a little wacky. The title is:

Sex in the Cemetery...and Other Bible Stories

Terms & Conditions
• Payment: $200 Grand Prize awarded to one story per volume; $100 (each) all other stories published in book, plus a complimentary copy of the book, upon publication. Authors retain the copyright to their original work. There is no submission fee.
• Contest Deadline: November 1, 2007 dcstanfa@fuse.net
• Story Length: 750-2,500 words
• Point of View: First-person or third-person (no second person).
• Style: Narrative nonfiction, creative nonfiction. But, it must be a story. The theme of this anthology is relationships. Think men, women, and messy meanderings. Essays will be considered, but the Author must have a story to tell, not just an opinion. PG-13
• Tone: Stories must be humorous. They can be poignant and touching, but above all, they need to be humorous. Irreverence is a plus, as is the uniqueness of the tale.
• Stories must be original, true (license to exaggerate greatly, but essentially true).
• Previously published material is acceptable, as long as the Author retains the copyright.
• A publishing agreement will be mailed to the Author of each story selected as a finalist.
• Due to the volume of submissions anticipated, we cannot report on the status of individual submissions (with the exception of finalists, who are notified in writing). The grand-prize winning story and the list of contributors will be posted on the Editors’ websites (www.susanreinhardt.com and www.dcstanfa.com ) upon publication.
• Authors may submit multiple stories.
How to Submit Your Story
Email submissions, in an attached Word file, to dcstanfa@fuse.net with anthology submission in the subject line
Each submission must include the following:
• Your full name
• Your mailing address
• Your phone number
• Story word count
• Story title
• Title of original publication—if in a larger body of work
• Brief bio of author—100 words, or so.

Was interested in this contest, but the two websites do not mention the contest. (Hey, nobody get any ideas.) Can you say where this is posted online?
