Where are YOU, You are among my favorite writers, I was wondering if you were interested in the challenge of my new contest? To try to write in a FORM you don’t normally use and to see if you can TRICK me ;) [most of your writing I can tell it’s YOU straight off! ;)] I would like to run a contest where the BEST and Brightest are highlighted, but it’s only fair you challenge yourselves. Please do let us see a new write from YOU in a new form! Light & Love Always Debbie
