''Those mysteries that pass editor and admin approval will be listed in the various cities under “scripted mysteries.” We will choose a deserving few from that pool to be listed as “featured.” Only authors of those mysteries listed as "featured" will be awarded subscriptions. '' -Sleuth Admin

I wouldn't rely on writing a scripted mystery as a way of getting a subscription Snow76. They are long and hard (but fun and rewarding to write) and then they go through a strong editorial process before final approval. Only then does the admin decide if you mystery is worthy of becoming featured (not all do) and then it's up to admin if they give you subscription time as a reward for writing.

It's a good incentive to give it all a go but much better to pay for subscription.
