My Journal #2

What is your opinion on the idea of competition? Is competition a good thing or a bad thing, and does it promote progress at all?

Competition gives a writer deadlines, criteria and specifics to meet. It makes a writer write tightly and makes every word count.  I don't think it leads to progress in writing unless a writer uses the reviews they get as a stepping stone to better writing. Now its a great way to get your work noticed and to encourage people to visit your port if they like what they read. That is always a good thing. I hope to do this more often. I've been a bit busy lately with promoting my book and working on a new project.
