"Game of ThronesOpen in new Window. Hello fellow writer. My name is Sandra. I am one of the sly foxes.
Title: The Whatever Contest
First Impression: This was an impressive contest to create and promote. The prompt to write with the number twenty-two in mind is intended as a WDC birthday celebration. That magic number makes for short poetry, or short stories. It may seen like an easy assignment, but sometimes being brief is difficult. Each word matters and must do double duty. I imagine run-on sentences would be discouraged.
What needs you attention: I cannot think of anything to suggest. I have never hosted a writing contest here at WDC, or anywhere.
What part I liked best: You have created a clear format here. The rules and expectations are not difficult to understand. They are concise. I like that you inform any entrants their offerings could potentially be judged at The Quills level. That is an encouragement. You promote that contest as well. You explain that any writer may nominate a piece of writing to The Quills. You remind others that it still exists. I appreciate that posting links are provided. Half the battle is knowing the how and the where at this site. Newbies aside there is always a first time, isn't there? Given the opportunity to read past prompts, past entries and note what past winners did gives other writers a confidence boost. This also provides new reading and reviewing material. This page is user friendly with highlighted links. Just click and the rest happens. "Judging will be completed...eventually." Hey, you are transparent and honest. Plus you hint that the judging will not be hasty.
Overall Impression: This is a great contest. I appreciate that you invested a lot of your energy and enthusiasm to it. Thank yo for allowing me to read your work. It has been my pleasure. What does the fox say??? Listen carefully.
