Re: Successful Writing Competition
True, QP. And may I say whata delight it is to see you in yellow once again *FlowerP* As I recall, you were yellow many years ago with me. . . and here we are again *Ha*

How can you guys not have FAVORITE contests? Lol. I hold my contest "The 4 Controversies Contest every 4 months, on average. Sometimes every other month, sometimes a bit longer. But in it's first year there were 3 rounds. Now I'd LIKE to run it every other month, but because it's 1,000 words minimum and non fiction, it just seems to take me forever to judge! So, I went out and got more judging help (reviewing really, as I am the judge always and always will be yup) and will keep it at 4 rounds a year. Until I move in my cottage QP, as I am still renovating it by myself *Shock2*

Good tip peeps-- know when you need help. I had a hard time with it. Result? One round wasn't judged in two weeks by like 4 months *embarrassment* But I learned my lesson there!

We also tend not to get TOO MUCH feedback on contests in general. . . now or in the past. One reason I am replying and enjoying this topic, Thundersbeard 30DBC JULY HOST I cannot possibly complain as my co-judge Shannon has been there from the start, cheering me on! But so long as whoever enters learns something new and enjoys it, I consider it a success.

Non fiction anyone? Round 4 is not closing until June 1st. Lol. Wasn't meant to be a plug, but if it fits the socket *Rolling*

~(Adrienne) or just 'Whata' *Cross2*
