I have to say, the lack of entries so far has broken my heart. :( I cannot try any harder to get any entries. For my December contest, I only have 1 entry. If it stays like that, might have it clear all $2100 of the prize money :/
I am so sorry, to the entire community. I don't know what else to do. Contest started July 31. Here it is almost the end of September.
I wish you all a merry Christmas.

Sorry, Sephrena
You know what I've been busy with. :D
I'm out of my mind and into yours!
I often work more to deadlines than start dates.
I've been trying to finish other books and I try to put the same effort into things I do here. I just submitted to the September contest with two days to go. I'll try to get something in, but it will be a while.

Contests
I'll see what I can come up with. I have a lot of projects lately.

I am working on a Halloween story
and a Christmas story. I just need spoons to finish them in time.
I'm planning on entries for
I'm planning on entries for both the Halloween and Christmas contests, but I've got a lot going on right now and I need to squeeze the time in to work on them.
*big hugs*

Don't take me too seriously. I'm just kitten around. :3
Christmas is a long way off... At the moment
I have a story under development for posting in December. From other comments, I suspect that I'm not alone here.
Now... if it was 20th Dec and there was only one entry, then I'd start to get worried.

Likewise
To have a contest, particularly one in honour of our major corporate contributors for years, with so few entries, does not show our site in a good light.
Come on, there are some great writers out there who can still post a story.
Contest timing
Perhaps I read the contest rules wrong but I thought the rules stated you had to enter the Halloween and Christmas stories between a certain time frame (October and December). I have a Halloween story I'm planning to enter if I can rid myself of a writer's block I've been fighting for months. I know you have three contests but it's a lot for anyone to enter all three and I suspect many of us have been saving ourselves for the October contest as Halloween and transformational stories go together like peas and carrots.
The Christmas Contest
is from July 31 - Dec 15 2024

As Gandalf said to Frodo
I was delayed. Between two cardiac procedures and moving, I've been busy. I'm looking forward to the Halloween and Christmas contests.
Love, Andrea Lena
