Icon4 Call for submissions - $100 prize money


Hello,

backacrehomestead.com is currently holding a writing contest. Each submission counts as one entry and you can have as many entries as you like.

The overall theme of the blog is homesteading, rural life, independent living, gardening, and frugal living. If your piece relates to one or more of these in some way, it can be submitted. Minimum 750 words but 1000 or more is preferred.

Follow the link below to see full contest details.

Thanks!

I have a story about a Vampire who only feeds once a month and he lives on his own. As this fits two of your criteria, is it o.k. to enter?
I could make him a keen gardener if it helps!Or perhaps he could only feed on homesteaders, what do you think?

Best regards
D

Ethan - I'm sure it would make great content somewhere but it doesn't quite fit what we're looking for. Thanks though!

maidahl - As of this moment there has been seven submissions. There is still a couple of days left to get your entry in.

Okay, so, what if he's a homesteading werewolf who's really into recycling and like, has to sell his victim's clothes so that he can make ends meet? I'm really trying here!

"...well if only I had seen this earlier..." Jats sighs with a chuckle while having a rare poke around the rest of the site "...where I could have easily spliced a few posts together for hundred bucks, why I would even consider a regular column if asked..." smiles Jats putting away the scythe for the day and going back to soldering solar cells with only a hundred and sixty or so to go now
