Creative Writing Contest: $100 for Eight Words
Contest Now Closed
Congratulations to Tracy from the UK for her winning contribution:
From Inspiration to Publication
Once again, thank you to everyone who participated and made this such a difficult decision!
Watch for further contests to come...
For some time I've been wanting to offer a creative writing contest on this site. I haven't quite worked out the logistics of the contest yetwho would read them,
who would sponsor the prize money, etc., but I plan to get to that.
For now, the very first creative writing contest is a practical one. I will be revamping this site shortly in an effort to make it easier to use and navigate, and
also to provide a space for writers to promote their courses and books. (If you're interested in that, write me a note.)
With that change, I plan to remove my name from the title and add a tag line instead, but I want it to be catchier than anything I've dreamed up. My ideas represent
the content of the site, but they're boring:
- Be a Better Writer: A Guide to Writing Craft and Publication
- Be a Better Writer: Writing Courses and Resources
- Be a Better Writer: A Guide to Writing Courses, Resources & Publication
I know some writers (and non-writers) are brilliant with tag lines, so someone is certain to do better than that. If you could use an extra $100, or would like to
contribute, please help me out. Put your ideas below and check back on March 31st, when I will choose a winner.
Creative Writing Contest Guidelines
- Most importantly, the tag line needs to be original. No quotations or copies.
- The tagline should reflect the content of the site and tell visitors "what's in it for them" in a catchy and interesting style.
- I will need to contact the winner, so please be sure to include your name and email address. I will strip the email address before I post
your entry to protect you from spammers.
- Enter as often as you like.
- By submitting, you grant me the right to use the winning submission in any way I wish.
Deadline: March 31, 2010
Maximum number of words: Eight
Prize: $100
