About

Welcome to Contest Guru’s NEWS.  This blog is all about … duh … contests.  We focus on contests of skill and daring do … vs sweepstakes types of contests.  So if you are a writer, a poet, a photographer, a designer, a cook or anyone who likes to get their creative genes into play … you are in the right place.

 I’ll have articles and contest notices for you.  I’ll try and feature the really cool contests I find and some of the ones that really make me mad.

Do feel free to particpate.  Tell us about contests that aren’t listed in the contest database … and tell us when you’ve won something so we can go and take a peek at your winning entry.

YES … all comments are moderated so forget about slimeing up the blog with spam.

Have a really fabulous day!

WIN SOMETHING and tell us about it.

Hi Melanie,

Can’t find anywhere on your website where a person can click and join up for your Contest News. I did get this latest email from you but certainly don’t receive the weekly stuff. Is there an email address where I can write to and re-enter my email address? I cannot actually find a link where one can email you. Perhaps this is for a reason???

Have a super weekend.

Cheers,
Diane

Hi Diane,

I get all of your comments via email … so sending me a comment is the same as sending me an email AND I don’t get spammed as much!

I checked and you ARE on the Contest News newsletter list. You aren’t getting the weekly “stuff” because I am switching over to the blog format. This way I can keep everyone informed about contests whenever something comes up.

In the next week or so I will give everyone instructions on how to get a regular blog “feed” including information on WHAT a blog feed is! Additionally I will give visitors an option to sign up for a blog feed newsletter.

As for Contest News. I will probably send it out once or twice a month, but it won’t look anything like it used to!

I hope you like the changes that are taking place now and in the near future.

Melanie

Hey Melanie–

Tried to find where on your site I can go to post my contest, but couldn’t find any information about that.

Thanks.
