CLOSED --- NOT OPEN 2017/ RECOGNITION OF AN 8YR contest nor my 12 yrs here is a mystery |
IF A CONTEST ANY CONTEST ... pleases contestants maybe you're in a rednecked competition. (Kidding, finagling for a litle humor.) However, none of these submissions are ever treated as superficially light as a red ring on a our nearly extinct American Pheasant. (Tasty bird actually. Good luck finding one to even snap a pix of these days.) Oh, Autumn, how we embrace yon golden hues. RE: this contest menu: EVERYONE who entered appears to boost their own efforts TTT == TOO THE TOP!! For a first timer (2009 copyright writing contest forum with 422 views) E-H-A- HALLOWEEN STORY closes with great grades for all and I hope for my eagerness as well. Fall came alive for me, deskside with sheer enjoyment. I never cracked a sweat, did cackle with fake fear. Yet upon the deck of a ghost ship, named The Margaret from billwilcox I sailed on pleasantly. POETRY entries took up Trick or Treat, often spoke for the kids out there in the streets. All as it should be as we allow. When we see "a mummy in Mother's sheets --- there's a mummy in Mummy's sheets ... as one wings along, reading, taking notes, smiling. Old Warrior provides a classic visual of a wereworlf shapening his claws. When I read this, I look at Whitey (my cat) burst out laughing and whoosh ... happiness came calling with HALLOWEEN THEME. Sunday night our sky went orange. On closing night, I jump in the car, head into town for milk. The blue mountain backdrop bespoke purple, orange whispy clouds, tis true. Nov 15 I sat watching until evening fell down in town. When I return home, my neighbor's Christmas Light Display towers in full bloom. So literally HALLOWEEN CONTEST CLOSING became "Invalid Item" in a sense. So, I'm ready .... hope you are too. I know as a writing contest judge several things by now. Open word counts gains better stories. I would never cut a poet off in amount of lines. NEVER!! I know as a redneck, a hack, a gumshoe, a journalist, a freelancer, a poet, a novelist, a short story-ist that surrounds of stories with a set holiday theme eventually enthrall as the year turns, while submissions cast their way to the list. My desk contains notes in stenography, in bitem lingo, in forum posts as well. This is an "Invalid Item" CONTEST!!!!Now contestants are all readers of future CLUB NL. I hope you think TEFF= April Sunday gives good contests. So do indeed plan visiting me again. HAPPY THANKSGIVING, MY FRIENDS!! thankyouthankyou, thanx, thanky thankyou .... THANK YOU! So what's wrong with rednecks? Nothing. So maybe LaRue's a redneck at heart ... in a writing sense surely one must recall ... if rednecks are original (and they probably are) consider this author-to-author hint. There is no set way to write a short story. All you do is write one. When these fine stories relax an audience, or revs pop up with quotation marks from the judge, telling about your submissions, wins etc ... review writing is a fast sum. So must whoosh off again to "Invalid Item" <> <> <> <> <> <> //// WORD: Perhaps post a blog on real reviews, where winners, contest closing remarks shall be penned conclusively once more. Cheerio. OPEN: "Invalid Item" OPEN: "Invalid Item" YO!!! PEOPLE!!! BE PROUD, DEAR AUTHORS, I was very impressed BY YOUR WORK!!! |
