Please enter I hope this contest goes well its my 26th contest !!

Fill up this Notebook by first making a list of 4-10 quotes (be sure to credit them) you would add. Title your list only as "My quotes".

here is a website to help you find some quotes
www.brainyquote.com

I may add more Points and HMs if this goes well, also I may raise the number of entries
*26 entries = lots of points

Each contestant must then go around to each other's lists to find the quote of their choice and claim it.(only choose one quote) When you find the quote you want, state that you are claiming it in the person's comments and then retitle your poem.

Each quote can only be claimed ONCE. In other words, there should only be one poem based on my coffee quote, when we get done. So try to make your lists different.

After are places are claimed, I will let you know it is time to write your poem.(you could write your poem before this) Please transfer your list to your author's notes. Also please put the quote you chose in the ANs with credit

Poems must be about your chosen quote 5-50 lines

-please keep the bad words on the down limited to one per quote

-No sticky caps

-label correctly if adult material is used

-No bashing

-Have fun!!!

-Be creative!!

-Write on!!

~Amy

    I'm not big on Quotes
  • i dont really get it....
    • the first step is to make a list of 4-10 quotes and post that as your poem
      step 2) go around and choose a quote to write about from another person's list then write about that quote you choose
      • Got it
        am so entering

        so i am going to NOT have the quotes i chose on the 2nd step?

        You're fast

        I use to run FindQuotations. Quotes are my thing. The poem is the hard thing cuz I haven't written anything and have been very busy with my responsibilities on the site and in real life.
        • yeah thats cool, i know there are allready some good quotes in this contest,
  • i'll try and enter as soon as i can!!
  • 2 days?!
    I cant write this in2 days!
    • i ususally give two or three days after closing so there is enough time for the people to write, i hope its good ~Amy
