orchid Registered: 01/21/07 Posts: 3675 Loc: British Columbia, Canada	Best boomer women haiku about boomer women concerns, growing up, etc. Have to post the format of haiku as a reminder. Allow each person if they wish, to post up to 2 different haiku. Give a deadline of the weekend or 1 wk. But we should be notified 1 wk. in advance. _________________________ http://cyclewriteblog.wordpress.com/ (How cycling leads to other types of adventures, thoughts) http://velourbansism.wordpress.com

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	There is a local call in radio show that has been rnning the same kind of contest for a long time now and people seem to loove it. He asks for the first 10 ansers to a question and whoever has the most of ten, wins a prize...The questions are like the 1o best TV sitcome before 1985. Or the ten handsomest leading men between 1950 and 1960. The 5 wealthiest destinations to travel to. The state with the 3 biggest waterfalls. He finds the answers on some website for his questions... Just a thought! _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

jawjaw Da Queen Registered: 07/02/03 Posts: 12025 Loc: Alabama	The only thing about people doing this kind of "hunt" for the answer thing is that if it is the FIRST one to respond gets the prize, not everyone can be on the net all the time like us netters. Even if there was a deadline, that could mean that everyone could find the answers and there can only be one winner. So how would you determine WHO won? _________________________ Queen JJ www.queenjawjaw.com All Things Royal - 2010 and Beyond Humorist for the NABBW

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	They have to be the first CORRECT answers he is looking for. The questions are hard and not easily found, believe me I have tried. But its just a suggestion in answer to the request. I never win anyway, and the last thing I need is another book, yuk! _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

Edelweiss2 Registered: 09/09/08 Posts: 779 Loc: American living in Germany	I have an idea! How about a contest where we all vote ourselves. For example, every one can submit a short story of, let’s say; 150 words. Topic is open. In the end, every one who submitted has to vote for the best story; and of course is not allowed to give herself a vote. It should be based on the most readable, sellable, and entertainable…(I just had to say that.) The votes are sent to JJ or Dotsie. The winner gets her story published in BWS. _________________________ A friend is a gift you give yourself. -- Robert Louis Stevenson
