February 14 – March 1
A few years ago, my publisher, Kregel Publications, sponsored a fun, low-key writing contest and giveaway when the book Heartbreak Trail released. We patterned the new Memory Creek Milestones writing contest and giveaway after the previous contest . . . with a few added perks. Instead of less than 100 words and only a week’s deadline, the contest has been expanded to less than 500 words with two weeks until the deadline.
Five Winners!
Each of the five Gold, Silver, or Bronze winners receives both Yosemite at Last: And Other Tales from Memory Creek Ranch and Stranger in the Glade: And More Tales from Memory Creek Ranch. Gold and Silver winners also receive other fun prizes. Read all of the rules, but on your imagination cap, and start writing! Click the link below for the official details and Entry Form. Happy Writing!
YAY!
Yayyyyyyy!!
PERFECT! This will be so fun! Okay, so, I like to think ahead. When will the next contest be? I’m really good at thinking good stuff up fast! Thanks!
There is a “caption this” contest coming up next month. 🙂
Awesome! I hope I’ll be able to participate–I’m away for most of this week
Oh, and happy Valentine’s Day! (Also, happy Statehood Day to any fellow Arizonans :))
Happy statehood day! I don´t live in AZ anymore, but I was born and raised there my entire life (except for these past 3 years).
(sorry for the late reply) That’s so neat!
WOOHOO! I just can’t wait. This will be so not-boring like everything else today is except for youth group.
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY! Thanks everbody!
Wait, ooooooo, you live in Arizona? COOL! I mean HOT! Gosh, don’t you bake?
Yes it does get hot. It gets so hot, you could actually bake food outside. I have baked cookies before in the sun (surprisingly, they tasted better than the ones baked in the oven) and there was a restaurant near us that would bake pizza in the sun if it got hot enough. I guess if you’ve lived there your entire life you don´t really notice the heat much (because we were used to it). Since I have been gone for 3 years though, I bet I would fry if I went back (it often reached in the 100’s. Especially in Phoenix).
Wow!! That’s is SO hot Lizzy!!! I am so not a heat person! Even when we go to FL in March for vaca I am BURNING up 😆🥵
That’s so cool that you could bake food outside!!
I live in Minnesota so, not really a big fan of heat. (Although it usually get’s up to 96 degrees here in the summer. I pretty much melt. The winter is awesome though. It get’s down to -40 0. Brrrr!)
Brrrr! I live in New York (NOT the city, lol) (buffalo NY) and it gets FREEZING her in the winter!
LEXI! you live in MN! high five! I do too! MN is like the best state ever! yes it does get FREEEEEZING up here XD but it’s fun!
Brrrr I live in Oregon we just get a lot of rain in the winter. but this summer got up to 106 it’s usually only 80 here in the summertime. HAPPY VALENTINES DAY❤️❤️
Oh and Lizzy that’s so cool that you bake food outside did it take a long time to cook??
Yea they did. While normal cookies would take around 30 min to cook, these took like 3 hours lol. It was worth it tho! They were so yummy 😋
Wow!! That’s so cool that you guys can bake cookies in the sun!!!
Are the winter writing contest winners going to be announced today? 🙂
Yes, it was just posted a bit ago.
