First (and maybe last contest)
Blog Posted:9/28/2012 4:35:00 PM

 

Hi folks, I'm sponsoring my first contest on the theme of "whiteness".Top prize will be a book of poetry of my choosing...enter up to three poems...it is possible, though highly unlikely, for one person to win the top three positions..if by chance you accomplish this you will be considered a triple crown winner...
 and just may get a big email kiss from me. good luck...enjoy...looking forward to reading entries....by the way this is an anonymous contest...so if your looking for favoritism you've come to the wrong place....make me shake when i read your work(s).

    Great contest idea, Anthony. And you beat me to the idea of entering 3 poems. I was going to do this next contest-- in the mode Debbie suggested. Once all is said and done, hope you'll let us know what you discovered in the judging process. One question, can we take whiteness and run with it in any direction? Have some stuff brewing, but unsure if you are giving us full, free range. Thanks for hosting this contest. You are starting off with a bang, letting us submit three of any form... whoa! :) You're gonna work up a judging lather! Looking forward to reading what you inspire! Smiles from Cyndi

    Hi Cyndi, Take it wherever you'd like.. be a starling in a battlefield sky! My only stipulation is that it be anonymous, as i despise favoritism and cliques. Remember you don't have to enter three, especially if you have one relly good one, good luck, fire your mental marbles... knock my heart into low earth orbit. Anthony

    Hey, Anthony, nice to meet you. Interesting topic... I think you're going to receive an avalanche of snow! : ) If I find a nice idea...I'll write something for your contest. Have a great day. Ruben.

    the only way you can enter one contest 3 times is if you have 3 accounts, the system is designed to only allow each person to enter a contest once. unless you know some magic trick you'd like to share
