Step 38: Enter a Competition

And use your blog to shamelessly help you enter that competition. :)

I'm entering a contest hosted by local author Mike Mullin in hopes of winning a signed manuscript of the final book in his Ashfall series! Sunrise, due out on March 17, is the awesome conclusion to the story of how two teenagers survive in a world devastated by the supervolcano eruption in Yellowstone. It's a VERY good story, and if you haven't read the first two books yet, you've still got time!

There are LOADS of other competitions out there for you to enter, though. It all depends on what you're interested in. Sign up for a race, write a short story or poem for a writing contest, try to be caller 9 and win those ticket's to Katie Perry's concert. If you don't try to enter a competition because you think you might not win, then you're definitely not going to win. And even if you don't win, you can gain valuable experience (if you end up as caller 10, you'll know next time to be a faster button pusher ;) )

So my question to you: What kind of competitions are you interested in?
And my challenge to you: Big shock here--go enter a competition! If you're interested in Mike Mullin's competition, you can go here to check out all the rules, but hurry, his competition ends on January 26!
