Hey! Welcome to my second contest! This is open to EVERYONE espesh chumlets. So yes, moving on...
I recently went to the Folk Festival for the first time, I was totally BlOwN AwAy by how totally skip it was! All those bands and little stalls with all that sparkly jewelery and buttons and things. And the music and dancing...
awesomeness!
So ya, that is the main theme of my contest along with really wierd crazy fantasy stuffies and music related items.

1. Write me something inspired by the Folk Festival, probably like...ALL of you don't even know what that is...I'm not sure whether that is just a Canada thing or a "rest of the world" thing but I would REALLY like some entries about it. Even lightly based on it...the lights, the atmopshere, the dancing the sparkles and colors and people. Really, anything.
2. Write me something fantasy/wierdish/depressing. This option either needs to be a REALLY good poem or use really cool »punc. .tua. .tion«. Check out any of my writes or my sister Confetti Fairy-x for Ïdea§ °ƒ [what] i'm t a l k i n g ×about×.

WAY WICKED COOL!
A very intriguing contest you have. I might just have to enter it. It sounds like the perfect opportunity to get back into my writing. I'm looking forward to this new & fun challenge you have presented. -
I felt every emotion in this. Vivid, abstract and yet everything comes together. I truly feel the depth from this. So much truth. I loved every line of this piece as its' very touching and just full of positive thoughts and energy. Stunning imagery and the flow to this piece is quite impressive. Lovely write!! Great message in this poem. Thought provoking, Imaginative, and I loved your creative imagery. Your carefully chosen words painted a picture as I read your poetic work of art. I am glad I read it. thanks for sharing. Keep up the great work. Best of wishes to you. good luck in all that you do....peace always in all ways.

God, imagine a folk festival...I shudder at the thought. An interesting contest though. Think people will go for it. Word banks were a bit boring though

An interesting idea for a contest, Very original. I can't wait to dive into the entries. We have several folk festivals here in Mississippi, one of which is pagan pride day. I can't wait to attend. Anyway, great job.
-
Wow! This looked like it was a great little contest that you had in here! It's too bad that it's all over now or I would have tried and entered. It sounds like a lot of fun and like you had quite a time yourself! Congratulations to all the wonderful winners of this contest. I just thought I should tell you though that I clicked on this from the featured box. So since it's over now, you might want to take it out and get the rest of your points back. Unless you had some other reason for having it up? I don't know. Just thought I'd tell you in case!
-
Well I clicked on this thinking I might try something, but the contest is over, so I guess I won't. It sounded like it could have been fun!
