Misc. Monday: a Winner, an Award, Contests & More


Winner 

Congratulations to LA Musing, winner of a copy of Why I Left the Amish. Thanks to all who participated!


Award

I think a few awards that I received in 2010 fell by the wayside, and for that I apologize to the dear blogging friends who sent them my way. I appreciate your kindness, so very much. With that said, and before I forget yet another, I wanted to thank Rachna Chhabria of Rachna's Scriptorium for the Magical Blog Award.

Thank you for thinking of me, Rachna! Rachna's blog is full of great writing food for thought. I'm sure she'd love it if you stopped by to say hello.

Contests

The Highlights for Children fiction contest offers three prizes of $1000. Hurry, entries must be  postmarked by January 31, 2011. Click here for details.

More contests can be found here, at the Freelancewriting.com site. They've got a sizeable listing with everything from poetry, fiction, YA, and more.

Winning Writers has listings of poetry and prose contests. Sign up for their free newsletter to get the latest info.

Need more contests? Fanstory.com has an assortment too. Their regularly scheduled contests cover just about every genre.

Be advised that these listings do not necessarily mean I endorse these sites or their contests. Just passing along the info as I find it.  

Promise you'll let us know if you win?

And More

Still excited...my recent guest post over at Pen & Prosper can be found here. Just mentioning it again since the original announcement was posted on one of my off days. I invite you to stop by if you have the time. 

What blogs do you deem award worthy? Care to share with us? 

Happy writing,
Karen
