1st December 2021
Hello to all of you wonderful readers both old and new. First of all, a very Merry Christmas to you in advance.
December is here and so it is time to announce my challenge or competition whatever it is deemed to be.
I did think about prizes and it was a unanimous decision from everyone who commented previously that you would rather have more prizes of lower value so more people can get something by successfully entering.
Prizes
So I might add more depending on how active Mr YouKnowWho is with me.
But confirmed prizes as follows:
20 prizes of $3
3 4 prizes of $5 (These will be mystery prizes and given out by me at random)
The requirements
If you are one of my readers then you should know that I love to tell and write stories and I love to read stories.
My favourite stories are faction , that is a fusion between fact and fiction. I mean who doesn't like to embellish the truth a wee bit? I mean I know I do lol.
So the theme and requirement is to write A Christmas Story
I believe anyone can enter this, and the sky is the limit, you can draw on your past experiences, your dreams, your wishes anything really, so get creative.
However, do make it your own content, no spinning someone else's story.
I will be the sole judge. And I will award the prizes on December 24th, this will be by me upvoting your submitted article on December 24th with the prize.
I will also publish all winners in an article!
Each entry must have the following:
You must mention the tag #ChristmasChallenge2021 , if you don't mention it you will not be eligible for a prize.
You must tag me @TengoLoTodo
You must submit the article in English (write in your native language and submit a translation in English if you like)
It needs to be a minimum of 600 words
You must submit the special requirement as a picture in your article at some point.
One of the mystery prizes will be awarded for what I think is the best picture of the special requirement, in my opinion. Perhaps I will find it funny or marvel at the creativeness in making the special requirement. Who knows, if I get visited more then there might be more than one mystery prize dedicated to the special requirement.
The Special Requirement
Failure to add a picture of the special requirement will mean the entry will be ineligible to win a prize, it does not matter how wonderful A Christmas Story it is.
Drum Roll. I want to hear you singing and then I want to hear you dancing and then I want you to cook a Christmas dish and see you eating it :)
haha did you think I was serious?
No, forget that, much as I would like to see and hear that, that is not the Special Requirement.
Drum Roll version 2 ...
Ok are you ready!
I want to see a photograph of READ
You can paint it, you could draw it in the sand or in the snow, you could crochet letters, you can park cars to write it. You can make it in rice, you can bake it into bread. You can make a paper or plastic chain. The choices are endless. So remember the more creative or pleasing the more chance you will have of winning a mystery price, in fact @Eylz2021 has kindly donated five dollars, so there will be two mystery prizes for the most creative READ.
So let's have a wee recap.
Submit an entry with the theme A Christmas Story
Mention the tag #ChristmasChallenge2021
Mention me @TengoLoTodo
The article needs to be in English and at least 600 words in length
Has to be your own words and original content
Needs to have a picture of the Special Requirement READ somewhere in the article.
No more entries after December 23rd will be eligible for prizes.
