Monday, November 28, 2005Hear Ye, Hear Ye! Only FOUR MORE DAYS!Yeppers, my fine, talented readers -- four more days to enter The Big Show-Your-Seuss-Talent Writing Contest! Don't be shy! Pull out your tattered copies of The Lorax and Horton Hears a Who in order to brush up on Seuss technique, and then go to town! Want something simpler? Try emulating Hop On Pop or The Foot Book instead. A reader has asked the question, "Can you enter the contest if you don't have a blog?" Well, I'm not one to thwart someone's talent, so I'm going to say, YES! Now, if you don't have a blog and your piece happens to win second place, you're out of luck, since the second place prize is a review and showcase of your blog here on The Write Way Home. So here's the answer: Do you frequently visit someone else's blog and you think it would be nice to have it showcased? Then do this: Inform your favorite blogger that you're entering a writing contest and you'd like to mention their blog as your "blog touchpoint." Ask if Blogger Extraordinaire would be willing to mention the contest and link to The Write Way Home. If so, you're in luck -- include your Favorite Blog along with your entry. I'll verify it, and you'll be in the running along with the other Seuss wanna-be's. Okie dokie? I love reading these entries, so bring 'em on! As for me, I'm fighting the gloomies of a grey Monday. I had my teeth cleaned this morning -- could anything be worse on the Monday after a holiday? Well, actually, it could be worse. It could be root canal or a car accident or three broken ribs. Whew -- I just stopped myself from embarking on an anti-dentist rant. Consider yourself lucky! One more note: Check out Blogging Boss's new look! Eric took the photos and created the image himself. Seventeen years of marriage and he still manages to surprise me! (Okay, okay, I'm proud of him! There's no way to hide it...) Now get thee to thy nearest Word document and CREATE A SEUSS PIECE! |

5of my readers are feeling chatty:
I had to go to the "girlie" doc. today. I think I prefer the dentist! :)
Oh, I wish I could write well enough to enter this contest. I guess I just have to buy my own copy of your book. :)
Anyway too busy to write - transferring My Lighter Side to a different host. Hope to be back blogging by Wednesday. I guess that's what happens if you use 'Free' blogging platforms. Well, maybe next year I'll go 'pro' with my blogs - ha...
In His grip,
<><
Argh!
I just popped in here to see how things were coming along with the contest. (Sounds like you are having fun with the reading.)
And you had to go and mention the dentist. (sigh) Yeah, it could be worse. I'm going in tomorrow morn to have a tooth pulled. 'Course, I'm getting the happy gas 'cuz I'm a huge wimp when it comes to needles.
I just hope my husband can deal with a goofy, gassed wife. :)
So, yeah ... can't wait to find out who wins the "Seuss" contest. Um, do we get to read all the entries after the judging has been done? I'm guessing that would be a blast!
Toodles,
