I need everyone

Chatterbox: In This Month's Issue

I need everyone

I need everyone who entered the contest this month to please raise their hand. Oh, and Cricket, do you send a letter out to everyone who entered, like with the letters to the Letterbox???

 

Yes, everyone who includes a complete mailing address is sent a reply card (if not a winner) or a certificate (if a winner).

Why do you need to know?

I'm curious. And, yes, I know that curiousity killed the cat, in case you're about to tell me that.

I never understood that phrase, so no, I wasn't about to say that. I was just curious as to your curiosity.

I was going to enter the photo contest, but then I missed the deadline...Embarassed

But I want to enter the poetry contest! I guess I should probably get on that.

Oh, enter, enter, enter!!! :):) I wish I were good at poetry...  The only poem I've ever written was "FRIENDS", as ya'll know. :):):)

No, Paige, I actually don't know.

I plan to enter the poetry contest.

I wrote a story about the curiosity/cat episode. In it, The Cat was an evil king, and Curiosity was the name of a brave young woman. The evil king's death wasn't so bad, really. He'd made a law against reading, and everyone hated him...

I don't think I'd like that king much! I LOVE reading! :)

Me too! I was trying really hard not to make it sound very bad that The Cat (who wasn't a cat, but people called him that because he treated his subjects the way a cat would treat a mouse) was killed by Curiosoty, so I put that law in to make him look selfish.

I have sent in my poem two days ago. I have only ever entered the poetry contests :P, and I got an honorable mention once, and first prize once. (In the opposites contest!)

So that is why I wanted to enter the photography contest, cause I'm a decent photographer, but I missed it.
