Writing Contest Deadline Extended!

I want everyone to have a chance to win the great prizes in our first monthly writing contest! It's not much of a contest if there's only a few entrants. So come on freelance writers! It's free to sign up, free to enter, and free to win! There's nothing to lose and a lot to gain!

The deadline to enter is extended to 5 p.m. (MST) on Saturday, June 14. The contest will now run from June 14 to August 14 to allow you plenty of time to come up with some great articles and get them sold!

To review, here's the contest information and rules:

The winner will receive a one-year online subscription to Writer's Market - a $29.99 value! (I personally believe Writer's Market is the best book and website resource available to freelance writers.)

(Buy a copy here, 2009 Writer's Market Deluxe, or wait and see if you win!)

The idea is not only to improve your writing skills, but to get your work sold!

So here's how it works. This month's contest is going to be based on articles you write and submit to Constant Content*.
*Constant Content is not affiliated with Writers' Resource, and is not associated or involved in this contest in any way.

Write and submit your best articles to Constant Content. (It's free to sign up if you haven't already.) The articles can be on any topic, or can be to fulfill a request.

The articles must be approved and placed on the site for sale in order to be counted.

You will receive 1 point for every article posted for sale on Constant Content. (regardless of whether it is to fulfill a request or is just for sale).

You will receive 3 points for every article sold on Constant Content.

The person with the most points is the winner!

This contest will begin on June 14 and will run through August 14.

To enter, use the contact form at the upper right hand page of this blog. Simply send me your Constant Content username so that I can track the number of articles you post and sell. If you have a blog or website you want posted on this blog, be sure and include a link to it as well.

All entries must be received by 5 p.m. MST on Saturday, June 14.
