Triple Threat Contest Judged

Blog Posted:7/6/2015 8:22:00 AM

My first contest has been judged and wow what a challenge to do! I really did enjoy it and can't wait to host more contest prompts. The prompts for this contest were "girls just wanna have fun" Bad boys, whatcha gonna do" and "hit me with your best shot" Which were all 80's song references, so I hope I got a beat inside your head somehow. I was quite shocked at how many entries used Hit me with your best shot as the prompt, and there were great ones in every category. The winners list has a great variety of poems and styles so please check them out and drop a comment to the poets, Now that I know how to judge a contest, I am hoping to host a lot more, Keep smiling and keep your pens inspired! Thank you every poet for entering! You all are awesome!!

thanks for the honor to be on your first winners' list. Yes, I noticed Hit Me With Your Best Shot was the popular one. Which surprised me, so I stayed with Girls just wanna have fun (OF COURSE, haha) Congrats to YOU on your first contest!!

Thank you, I am so glad you entered, and that I had so many great poems to read. I hope you try your pen on my brevity contest, I'm sure to have an abundance of great poems on that prompt

That was a great contest for me to enter... Are you going to do any more triple themes? From your point of view it must make judging difficult.

I think so! I am so happy that it gave a great variety to the winners list. I just posted a brevity contest, which would probably be right up your alley with your interesting take on things! I sure do hope to do lots of great contests be inspired!

Thank you very much Casarah! I still have the song ringing in my head, "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" , which I think is the perfect thing to be doing on a warm sunny summer day !!! Let's all have fun this summer !!

Casarah, although my poem did not place (I was a bit off on the theme) you did inspire me to write a poem-gossamer that received lots of views, comments and a high rating, I have renamed it and it is ready for another contest, thanks for sponsoring contests and a big congratulations to all your winners
