Writing contests and such
Sep. 14th, 2004 07:45 pmI'm going to go ahead and toss out this update over here, on the off chance of snagging a couple more entries before it is all said and done. We have a "Bad Writing Contest" going through the fanclub community - not 'poor' (ie no caps, bad spelling, etc.) but "Bad" which is an artform in itself. :-D I'm hosting it at the Scrapbook site, and have now completely given up on Decipher ever giving out prizes anyone even wants, hence I'll be sending out some funky little prizes myself. I've extended it to the end of September because of the number of entries being somewhat paltry.
So please - write badly! Especially bad poetry. I think.
Also, as you will soon be hearing on the boards if you still go there, (I've handed the hear-ye hear-ye thing off to Lith, as I'll be sorting out the theme day stuff) our Fall contest will be Dress Your Pet as a LOTR Character, which runs til Thanksgiving to give everyone a chance to get their pictures in. I rather wish I didn't have hard-to-dress parakeets. ;-)
And speaking of Theme Days, Aragorn's number has finally come up and in spite of his being rescheduled to Sept. 24-25, I expect it will be a good one. Who would have ever though he would be the very last of the Fellowship to get his Day?
Seeing as I'm the one running the contests now instead of Decipher, I don't give a rip whether or not you have a membership with them. Just come out of lurking and give me some good entries, ja? Ja. Yeah.

That's what's nice about found poetry, it's not as hard to do as an inkling, and you can use it for any character day. I do have an idea for an inkling, but I don't know if I'll have time to work it up, even with the extension.
No pets here, except our watchdog pooch in Pakistan. He would not stand for being dressed up, so I guess I"m off the hook on that one. :-D
Thanks for picking up Decipher's slack and taking responsibility for all these fun things ((((Prim))))
