The Contest Challenge

So, there are 2 things you can do to get awesome prizes, but one set is DEFINITELY more awesome than the other!

The lessor awesome prizes include my 2 exclusive MBs for this challenge. I also post an ad on the newsfeed asking other people to send MBs to the "winners" who finished that month. They average (but I don't guarantee) another 5 MBs from other newsfeed folks. For this, you need to do 12 months in a row. If you get behind, you can catch up. You can also work backwards, doing months from before you joined, if you need/want to finish sooner For example, say you started September 2019, knowing you'd finish in August 2020 of the next year. But if you know you'll have a really busy summer in 2020, you can start working on August, July, and June of 2019 instead of waiting for June, July, and August 2020. It just needs to be 12 consecutive months. That's what you are currently working on.

But, for the giant celebration, the one I do (differently, but still amazingly) every January, the one that has currently given out over 130 raffle tickets, credited every available review, ordered 7 MBs (5 of which are exclusive), and given out 333,333 GPs (because they've done 3 years), all for each of the 6 "winners"--and it's only the 4th of the month--for this GIANT celebration, you must have done every single month since it started. You didn't have to have done it on time or in order, but you have to have done it all.

Unless you manage to get them all done ASAP, you have a whole year to get them done. I'd suggest finishing your initial year first. Be sure to note that you finished in your post in case I don't notice. It happens. After you finish your year (and get your celebration for that), then I'd suggest working on those months/contests among which your contest is listed in that post since those months apparently don't have anything else available. I can come up with another contest for you or you can just use The Writer's Cramp in place of yours. Then randomly, as the mood and prompt inspiration strikes, do the rest. No need to do a specific order, though some folks have made a little calendar of which months they need to do which contests that are only open at certain times, especially if it's one they really want to do. And feel free to message contest owners to ask when they will be opening their contest next. Sometimes just showing interest might make them reopen it.

Any other questions? I think you should go for it, especially if you are already planning to do I Write in 2020. That challenge is perfect for mine to be paired with.
