The finalists will be printed in the Hessler Street Fair poetry book, and get a chance to read their poems on the evening of Wednesday, May 9th, at 7pm at Mac’s Backs Books on Coventry. The first, second, and third place winners will then read on May 20th at the Hessler Street Fair.
Best thing about it? No entry fee, and cash prizes! Win everlasting fame (well, locally, anyway). Check the full rules at the Hessler Street Fair Poetry Contest page.

So - do the e-mail submissions need to be in the body of the e-mail or as attachments - i tried sending a message to the address at the site almost a week ago and got no response.
Feel free to put them in the body of the e-mail unless the formatting is odd, at which point .RTF attachments are fine. If you'd rather attach them anyway, that's cool, too. I'm pretty open about this.
