Contests
I love contests, and I have lots of them. Here are the rules I usually use:
1. You may enter by commenting on a specific blog post. Unless I specify otherwise, you may comment as many times as you want, as long as each comment is unique and it conforms to the rules for that contest. No “I want to win” comments will be accepted.
2. You must include your email address so I can contact you if you win. I will not share your email address with anyone else.
3. If the contest involves mailing something to the winner, only U.S. and Canadian entries will be accepted. I don’t want to pay the cost of mailing overseas.
4. Unless I specify otherwise, the winner will be determined by using a random number generator. I will enter the number of comments in the RNG and it will, as the name says, generate a bunch of numbers. The first number generated is the number of the comment. If the number is, say, 46 out of 100 comments, I’ll count to 46 and that comment is the winner. If I can’t contact the winner, or the person refuses the prize, I’ll go to the second number, etc.

[...] So you see, imagination needs moodling – long, inefficient, happy idling, dawdling and puttering…. Moodling – what a great word! Brenda Ueland’s advice is simple: “Tell the truth” and “Don’t do anything you don’t want to do.” There is lots to think about in this little book, and you can find much to inspire you to create whatever it is you want. The contest: I have a copy of the book that I’m willing to give up (I have another that’s all marked up that’s mine… all mine!). To be the winner of the book, leave a comment on this post no later than midnight, October 7 (that’s next Tuesday). In your comment, tell me what you would like to create – a book, a poem, a wall hanging, a garden, a scupture, a painting, whatever you want. I will use the random number generator to find the winner. Read more about my contest rules at: Thoughts and other Stuff. [...]
