It has been a fun year and that I still have other entries that I want to get done since some of them go for the whole month of September. Aside from entries, I also had my own contests running this month. So, managed two contests and aside from Wonderland, have taken part in a few different things.

Daily Blog "Blog Week Birthday Bastion 2025"  [E]
"Re: Prompt 5. Sept 5."  

While I don't blog that often, it's fun to get some prompts to be able to use my blog more beyond posting health updates. The prompts had a nice variety and it was fun to not only post but also had reason to check out other people's blogs.

Badge Activity "Earn the Badge - CLOSED"  [E]
"Day 4 - growth including more words"   Which was also worked with the blog one. "Day 4 - Cheese and Very Old Poems" 

I know the owner of the challenge and after helping give out a few badges, I decided to also join the fun as well for a day or two. Don't need to always seek the badges but wanted to take part a little too. I like helping when I can give the badges away.

Then there are contests... I still want to enter a couple but some don't end yet and others aren't party related that I need to finish too. Here are what I have done so far:

WDC Birthday Contest  (ASR) See you in 2026! Winners announced in the forum post. #2343349 by Munchomonster- Octoprep

"My Entry for Birthday Fun"  

I know the owner of the contest and try to enter whenever I can for this one or the Creature Features one. It's fun to write a little fantasy and do tidbits for bigger stories that I want to write in the future. Plenty of words to use that made for easy writing with ideas.

The Writer's Cramp  (13+) Write the best poem or story in 24 hours or less and win 10K GPS! #333655 by Sophyween

"Entry for Sept 7"  

Then there is the classic. It's hard to pass up Writer's Cramp. I enter this one occasionally, whether it's poetry or short fiction. The cow prompt was fun and sparked an idea for a cowboy/witch novel that I want to write someday. The less than 1k entry was a starting attempt but needs work still.


One little raffle entered today. It was really hard to pick one so it was done a little at random, but it's fun to try and bump up the bids. Plus, hard to pass up a carnival.
