Being a part of Writing.com's community gives you the validation you need to be the best writer you can be. I have been an editor for the Contest & Activities Newsletter for almost two years now, and I couldn't be happier. I am lucky to be among a super group of editors who put so much effort and pride into creating informational newsletters with a flair of personal quality. The Contest & Activities Newsletter will showcase up-to-date contests and will also mention contests that have been around awhile. Contests are not only fun, but a great way to earn gift points, receive constructive reviews and meet fellow writers. If you would like to host a contest or you want to read up on what's going on, you couldn't be in a better place -- all the tips, ideas and encouragement are right here! There are many activities on Writing.com, such as Campfires, Interactive stories, In & Outs, Madlibs, Survey Forms, User Polls, Word Searches and whatever you, the member, would like to create and share with the community. There is so much fun stuff to talk about, so make sure you stick around! ** Image ID #982279 Unavailable ** Summer time is here and it's time to be active outside, enjoying the weather with family and friends. It is especially a good time for dormant ideas to spring into action and flow from the pen or your finger tips! If you need a little help getting those ideas to flow, take your car out for a drive with the radio on or your favorite cd and head to the beach. I don't know about you, but when I drive I think of all kinds of ideas to write about or I think of what I want to add to an existing story. Those of you who don't drive, go for a walk or bike ride, bring your headphones or ipod and let those ideas fill head. Oh, don't forget the paper and pen, that's very important. Just relaxing outside is so soothing to the soul, it's great mediation to quiet the mind. You would be surprised the words you think of to create an awesome sentence for that poetry piece you are working on. I love gardening, digging into the dirt and planting seeds or plants, listening to the birds...it's very therapeutic. Well, that's a good start for the summer to get your story or poem written. I'm sure you will think of other things to do. Enjoy! Until next time... ** Image ID #693142 Unavailable ** Monthly featured contests for your enjoyment:
