I rarely do contests allowing prewrites,
however this time around I will allow them.
I want what you believe to be
the best piece you have ever written.
You can enter as often as you like
but there are a few minor rules
so please pay close attention.
Failure to comply with the rules
will get you removed.
RULES:
Must have been written in the last 6 months
I must NOT have commented on it previously
Those are my only rules!
Good Luck to All!
I know I will have some wonderful
works to read in this contest.

I have so many things I see as one of my 'bests' (what the best can mean actually) because most of the time I scratch my head wondering where on earth I came up with those things
-
I'm wondering about some of my work too....I remember some of my other poems I had written for contests....and I've got two, but they need to be red in a certain order cause it's a two part poem...but idk when it was written....
-
My best!?
I have no idea! I truly need someone else to make that call! 
What of mine in the last six months have you not commented on. 
Why you do this to me? You know I am a contest whore! 
Love You ♥
Mom

Contest whore? That is different. Bel, I like this one!
-
-
140 entries............ you gonna be busy for awhile...lol
-
140 entries Bel, I am gonna have to send you oxygen to break your poetic coma. lol, hugs, Bun
-
LOL that's quite a preliminary list you got there
When I have 100 something entries I may be lucky I have 10 up in that thing
Saaaaaayyyy... When are we in fact going to co-judge a super-gigantic, megahugebiggishly contest eh
with 500 entries or something?
Would you be able to draw that much in?
-
-
Oh I think I could draw that many in though not sure I'd survive the commenting
-
-
Well...
I'd call the contest: "Let's try to kill Celticmoon and leander with your prewrites"
And then ask for whatever prewrite we haven't commented on yet, below 30 lines
what ya think? lol
-
-
You really are trying to kill me aren't you?
And I thought you loved me
Can I at least finish being killed by this contest before opening another? -
-
LOL
off course Just hollar - I have five contests to judge as well by the end of the month... 3 that won't have that much entries, and 1 that has about 170 as for now, another one that will hopefully have over 100 as well so yeah
