Category Archives: Contests and Giveaways

I made the decision to put the top four of each category into a readers’ choice voting. Why? Because my two judges had a very hard time landing on a winner for each category. They gave me different stories for the winners and runners up. So, instead of me having to make the final decisions,Continue reading “Readers’ Choice Voting”

The nice thing about being a Circle C Newsletter subscriber is the fact that you would know about my Five Christmas Giveaways. Yes, that’s right. With traveling to Texas and caught up (to my eyebrows) with swapping howdies with Taffy and Kody, plus checking out the pregnant goats, I forgot all about telling my faithfulContinue reading “Five Fun Giveaways”

Note: Due to the fact that the contest launches today, I will announce last week’s “What Am I?” winner in tomorrow’s post. Today is the day! The Circle C & Goldtown Fall Story-writing contest launches. I won’t repeat here what you can easily find over on the Current Contest Page, except to say that thereContinue reading “Fall Story-writing Contest Launches”

I’ve got a lot on my plate and I almost forgot about the fall writing contest. Yikes. A few sweet queries via comments and/or emails have come my way. Thanks for your questions. Yes, I am hosting the Circle C fall writing contest, October 10-November 13. Originally, because I’m headed for Texas December 3-17, IContinue reading “Circle C Fall Writing Contest Coming Soon”

Wow! Overwhelming voting! Between 130-194 votes came in for each of the different categories. Some entries were pretty close, as well. (And no, I’m not going to go into that much detail as to which categories had entries very close, so please do not ask.) Thanks so much for showing these young artists your “love”Continue reading “Art Contest Winners”

It’s that time! The judges have chosen the top 4 entries from each and every category (except for the Ages 13-17 “Settings.”) I did not receive enough entries in that category, but instead of throwing it out, I decided to put all 4 entries up to a vote from you. It just didn’t seem fairContinue reading “Vote for Your Favorite Art Entries!”

Thanks for entering, everyone! King Sumo chose Janet E. as the winner, and she has already claimed her prize. If you entered the giveaway, stay tuned for a special Newsletter later today. It’s a fun welcome email from Ms. Patton announcing the winner. And . . . *drum roll* . . . she is offeringContinue reading “Giveaway Winner”

Today is the day you have been waiting for (well, I hope you have been waiting for it). I’m very excited to see everybody’s art creations. Here’s the thing. I have a full page dedicated to the first-ever Circle C & Goldtown Art Contest, so I am not going to repeat everything here in thisContinue reading “Art Contest Launches!”

In the past, I’ve hosted numerous Circle C writing contests, so for a summer “change,” just for fun, instead of a writing contest, I am going to host an art contest. With judges and everything. And prizes, of course. Why? Well, because not every Andi fan and reader is a writer. It’s time to includeContinue reading “Coming Soon! Art Contest!”
