Faerytaleish Pinterest Contest

It's been debated whether I have a contest addiction. In order to dispel any confusion, I'd like to confirm that YES, I DO HAVE A CONTEST ADDICTION.

During the Once Upon a Time Writing Contest (#ouatwriting), I felt such a surge of wonder as writers of all ages and backgrounds came together to write their own unexpected fairy tales.

And now, I'd like to announce the Faerytaleish Pinterest Contest or #Faerypin for short.

As some of you know, I have a group #Pinterest board called Faerytaleish (view its gloriousness).

This contest is focused on the power of images to inspire writing, as I have found that my own writing is stimulated greatly by the collective beauty of the Pinterest images. Every day I log in to find new and wondrous pins from my fellow pinners.

That being said, you can read the contest details below! 






Here is the code to copy into your blog entries:<!-- start InLinkz script -->
<script type="text/javascript">
                document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src=http://www.inlinkz.com/cs.php?id=158009&' + new Date().getTime() + '"><\/script>');</script>
<!-- end InLinkz script -->

If  you have a Wordpress blog, here is the proper code: <!-- start InLinkz script -->
 <a href="http://www.inlinkz.com/wpview.php?id=158009"><img style="border:0px"  src="http://www.inlinkz.com/wpImg.php?id=158009"></a>
<!-- end InLinkz script -->

Sharpen your pencils and GO!

  15. This is genius! I definitely use my pinterest boards for inspiration and even guidance when I find myself staring blankly at the screen where my words refuse to appear. Too bad I am really, truly awful at short fiction. You can bet I'll be reading what others post, though!

  16. Hi Anna. I wrote my first piece of short fiction inspired by your competition so thought I'd post on here to let you know. Think I'm too late to actually enter but that's okay.

    Here's a link to my site: http://myvitreoushumour.wordpress.com/

    Its like men and women don't seem to be fascinated except it's one thing to do with
    Girl gaga! Your own stuffs great. Always deal with it up!

  21. I've been browsing online more than 4 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be a lot more useful than ever before.

  22. When I originally commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and now
    each time a comment is added I get three emails with the same comment.
    Is there any way you can remove people from that service?

    Thanks!

  23. With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism
    or copyright infringement? My website has a lot of exclusive
    content I've either authored myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any methods to help reduce content from being stolen? I'd truly appreciate it.


    Look at my homepage ... more information

  24. Its like you read my mind! You seem to know so much about
    this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you can do
    with some pics to drive the message home a
    little bit, but instead of that, this is wonderful blog.
    A fantastic read. I will definitely be back.
