Exciting Event in
We are hosting 10 contests and we want 5 entries for each contest. Thus, the 1st 5 people to enter all 10 contests and post all 10 entries in 1 post in "The Contest Challenge"  forum will get 10k GPs! Post your entries with {post:#######}. I'm giving away 50k GPs -- 10k each to the 1st 5 people! Don't worry! November is the quick/short/easy contest month! It's still not easy, but I believe in you!
|
Ooh, I can't do all ten (one is "missing"  ) but can I get 5k GPs for entering 5? Or more? |
| 1. "Daily Flash Fiction Challenge" 2. "Chapter One" 3. "Monsters Under The Bed" 4. "Thankful Poetry Contest" 5. "The Dialogue 500" 6. "Bite Size Poetry Contest" 7. "Writing 4 Kids" 8. "Hook of the Book" 9. "Starting Stories" 10. "The Prompt Me Contest" Amethyst Autumn Angel, if "Monsters Under The Bed" doesn't open soon, either I'll replace it or allow folks to do just 9. I don't really want to get into people choosing to do 5 because then some of the contests will still end up with not getting 5 entries as people will continue to have favorites. |
| I guess I can enter my own as an example / non compete? Thank you for the shout out / inclusion! |
Look what Brandiwyn🎶Sprinting  made!!!
Got a plot rolling around in your head that you know you'll never use? Drop it off here! Need a plot? Uh, well, there's not much to choose from yet, but hopefully soon! lol |
| Scifiwizard Retired and S🤦♂️ , I've added your forum to this one as a resource and I added a new idea to yours. |
S🤦♂️ is one of the folks on here who proudly makes his income from actually writing so please support him.In his blog post "20251031 External Writerings October 2025" , he lists 6 outside links that, if clicked, will take you to his outside music blog. No need to listen to the actual songs (though I'm sure that helps the artists, too) just click on the link above, then click on each album, wait a couple seconds, and click back, then click on the next link. This can all be done in under a minute and he gets paid for each click from a new IP address, so you'd be really helping him out! |
I found this and thought some folks might be interested.
You can share your social media links here. |
Depends on what you are doing, N.A Miller  . There are people making bank on things like TikTok Shop and Bookstagram (Instagram for books). But then there are those of us who just use it for connecting with friends and family. Use 2-factor authentication for safety and don't connect to strangers. I generally don't have too much trouble, myself. I'm sorry you have. |
Schnujo - very true. did that too but it seems they found a way around the two step method. i might try to get facebook acct back if they'd listen to me. Oh yes happy note i got a settlement with the class action suit against facebook. a whole $13.67 part of the settlement plus a $38.47 cent prepaid mastercard. (thinks the prepaid thing is a scam i can't tell) but hey money is money.  |
| N.A Miller , I have a friend who follows someone on social media that announces all those class action law suits and he enters everything he qualifies for. He won't be a millionaire from it, but he makes money. Some are tiny like yours. But sometimes it a few hundred and occasionally it's a few thousand. But even $13 is dinner at a fast food restaurant for him since he's single. Lol He often tells me I need to follow her. When I get done with my PhD, maybe. But for now, it's all I can do to follow my professors lol |
LAST DAY! LAST DAY!
But One Contest Still Needs One Entry!!! 
Thank you for all your entries in the other 2 contests, though! YAY! Everyone else has 5, so we appreciate that! Now, let's get 5 entries for all 3 contests this month! Just one more entry... |
WOOHOO! Easy GPs-y |
| I KNOW, Brandiwyn🎶Sprinting ! I can't believe it took me 9 1/2 years to come up with that! But it was worth the wait. Hahaha! |
Looking for a quick and easy 1k GPs? Check out ruwth  's "Note:

| This is the day where we can and should go around posting the "care" emoji on all of her posts. "Note: In case anyone missed this... Note #1137920 ..." I mean everything. Go back through all her old Newsfeed and forum posts and show her how much we care about her.  For those who want to also include the emoji in your comments, but don't use it much, here's the code to copy/paste for her. {e:care} She also recommends you use it for others, but I leave that to your discretion. Feel free to also email her all the "Care" emojis you want today! She'll love that you are celebrating her special day! Amethyst Autumn Angel  suggested we also send this beauty to her. How could she not feel cared about? ![Merit Badge in A Big Hug
[Click For More Info]
For the idea of sending [Link To User webwitch] a bunch of MBs because of her hatred of the "Care" emoji and her decision to host a National "Care Day" where we are all allowed to give her a Care emoji. <img loading="lazy" style="" class="emoteZ" src="https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/e21/care.png" alt="*Care*" title="Care" border=0 width=15 height=15> [Link to Note #1137920]](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-A_Big_Hug.gif) It's called "A Big Hug" so technically, we can send her this anytime. lol If you can't afford to send her a merit badge, I'll sponsor up to 5 people to send her one of these beauties, preferably with some liberally sprinkled "care" emojis included, though there's no obligation, of course. Let me know if you need help participating. It's limited to the 1st 5 people who contact me. Bonus Note: WebWiԎch is Thankful  is also hosting a fundraiser. 50k for her adorable exclusive MBs is a rocking deal! "Note: *Right* [Link to Note #1137959] *Left*
..." |
WebWiԎch is Thankful has declared tomorrow (Wednesday, October 29 -- Already today for some of you) National "Care Day"!She doesn't like the "care" emoji because she thinks it looks like it is eating the heart. lol But she declared that tomorrow (Wednesday, October 29) we should use the "care" emoji on all the responses everywhere, no matter what they should be. (I think she's been drinking her own brew.) "Note: Public Witchy Announcement! Okay, I'..." IDK that it makes sense to do it on other people's, but I definitely plan to do it on her stuff...assuming I remember, of course. Hahaha! |
| ƁƖųҽyҽʐ ꨄ - It is difficult to make out details in such tiny flourishes to texts, emails, Newsfeeds, and such. It's particularly difficult on my postage-stamp size cellphone. Since you mention it, I can see where it looks like a Smiley sucking its thumb. In all honestly, I've always thought it looks like a Smiley hugging something I assumed was a heart. I knew it was 'giving a caring hug' and just use it as (I presume) it was intended. For me, the symbol is less important than the emotional message it conveys, "I care about you and so your cares are my cares." John Donne struck the construction fastener on the cranium in Meditation 17. A Smiley sucking its thumb would be the reverse side of the coin, meaning either 'things are a bit overwhelming just now' or 'this is dee-licious fried chicken!' |
Charles's Cornucopia 🦃  and Šuŋgmánitu Tȟáŋka  , you two are too funny! Well, PNG- 📓  , giving a friend a cookie is definitely supportive and caring! Glad I can help, ♥OctOGre tHiNg♥  . Be sure to join the fun today and send lots of "Care" emojis WW's way. lol Now that you mention it, ƁƖųҽyҽʐ ꨄ , I can see the thumb sucking, too. Hahaha! |
John Johnny Johnson sent me a MB yesterday. ![Merit Badge in Halloween
[Click For More Info]
It's that day when he comes back.
That poor old soul, that stupid Jack.
Will he find a house, grave, or nest?
Neither God nor Satan will let him rest.](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/group-Halloween-2026567.gif) He went above and beyond by writing a poem for it, too! I loved the extra effort and the creative poem so he turned it into an item!
Not into poetry? It's only 4 lines. Check it out! |
| Thanks for the link, WebWiԎch is Thankful ! I was looking for that. It wasn't on my list of recent places since none of the black cases I'd reached out to had responded. Thank you, John Johnny Johnson ! Mostly, it makes me happy because I know it makes WebWiԎch is Thankful happy when we participate. No one wants to run an activity and have no one participating. lol I've only nominated 1 person all month, so you make #2. Thank you for that! Good luck! Maybe you'll win a MB! |
One Contest Still Needs Attention in
But You Can Still Enter the Others, of Course!
Who has a comfort or dessert recipe they want to share in a story?
|
| Schnujo - Not only is there flash fiction, but then there is micro fiction. So teeny tiny for a story. Olivia's writing a novel  - I know how you feel. I am a novel writer so all of my "stories" for contests here end up being scenes or part of a scene. Back to prep I go too.  |
Schnujo - Dawn Embers   just caught it perfectly. We are novelists. We don't do flash or micro, we do epic (she even more as she does fantasy). The shortest story I remember in a long time was 1.800 words. But that's how things go with writers – some are epics, some are flashers, some are micros.  |
| Well, Olivia's writing a novel I don't call it The Contest Challenge for nothing. Hahaha! Good luck with whatever you choose! |
Which Contest Are You Choosing in
Because We Have Some Great Options...
Be sure to fan your favs! |
We Have Contests Needing Entries in
So Feel Free to Enter The 1st 2, Especially!
 Good luck with whichever contests you enter this month! |
| Thank you for your kind words, Silvern and Bodhisattwa Parekh ! Cubby , congratulations on getting so many entries this month! WOW! Though not all are from "The Contest Challenge" . In fact, while I stopped counting for "Chapter One" after you got to 5, I know "Writing 4 Kids" only has (as of when I posted this note -- I didn't check before posting the comment) only 3 from my challenge, so that means 2 definitely came from your very own sources. Great work! The other 3 could have been crossovers. IDK. But I definitely didn't send 2 of those entries to you unless they entered after I posted this and they saw it. lol Dawn Embers , I'm also glad you chose "Sharmelle's Recipe Kitchen Contest" ! It's a trickier contest, for sure, so it doesn't get as many entries, but I think it's well worth entering. Plus, not competing against 10 or more entries can be a nice change of pace, especially for newbies or others who may not be as confident in their writing. I'm definitely glad you selected this contest! Thank you! |
Schnujo - Ah...I get what you're saying, now. I was just so excited to get that many entries, especially for Chapter One! I had been thinking of closing it at one point because of lack of interest. But the last few rounds have increased in entries, so I am happy!  Sharmelle's contest is unique and I keep telling myself I'm going to enter one of these days. I've just been sooo busy in RL. |
| So, 6 of those entries in "Chapter One" are directly because of "The Contest Challenge" , Cubby -- more or less. lol I can't say they wouldn't have entered, but they also posted in my challenge. Now, did one of my 372 fans (I think it is) also see this note and say, "Oh, hey, that looks like a cool contest" or "That might go well with my NaNo Prep" and also decide to enter? Maybe. Or maybe those other 4 are purely organic to you. Who can say? Maybe that contest is just best served in the fall. No telling. Whatever the case, congratulations on having 10 entries this month! And good luck reading them all next month. Hahaha! |
| Here's a song by a friend of mine that seems pretty appropriate for me (and many others I know) as the month goes on. It talks about how paying your bills is a flex. lol I don't listen to much music since the brain injury, but for some reason, I love this song. He said it's his favorite, too because he grew up poor. Though he's a fairly new artist and hasn't written that many (and thus saying he's not got money is true). But maybe he means his favorite out of everyone's songs, not just his. Hahaha |
