Contests!! :):):)

What Cricket League contests has everybuggy entered for lately??  I entered the March issue contest (the drive-in movie drawing contest), the April issue (the 'animals in a funny place' story contest), and I am going to enter the May/June web contest (Draw Cricket Country). :):):) Actually, my version of Cricket Country is pretty funny, if I do say so myself. :):):) I spent two hours drawing it yesterday!!! :D:D The buggies look so much like the real ones, it's hilarious!! :D:D (and don't worry; I added Pussywillow!!!!!)

I am sadly lacking in artistic talent, so I've only entered three Cricket contests, and the only recent one was the February Cymbril poetry contest, and I placed well. :) I'll add a question - who has won contests and which?

I am new to Cricket, so I have only entered 2 contests.  The 'Escaping a Monster' contest, and I just entered the 'Animals in a Funny Place' contest.  For the 'Escaping a Monster' contest, I was awarded honorable mention for my story. Wink

I am thinking about sending a drawing of mine into the new contest, 'Draw Anything You Want', but I am NOT a good artist.  Might as well try though! Laughing

Oh, hee hee!!  I guess it was worth checking!! :):):) And YES, this is my favorite cover, too!!!!! :D:D:D I think I might buy the poster of it!!! 

Really, I've pretty much just started entering the contests.  I think I might like the drawing ones better, but they're all fun!! :D:D:D (but I don't like writing poetry....)

You should check out Chirp at Cricket or Down to Earth in the Chatterbox!!!  Those are the two places that I'm at most often, and I think are the most fun!!! (oh, but if you love writing, go to the Inkwell!) :):):)
