Help winning a Writing Contest?Well the New Year's Writers Rumble at Terry Kate's Romance in the Backseat that is hosted by romance author Erin McCarthy finally started yesterday and I'm one of the contestants! I actually am committed to winning this contest because I finally am going to sit down and finish a story that I start. I wrote the story called Old Trouble in the New Year and if you click on my story's title it will send you to the first part of my story. I hope you like the first part of my story and vote for it!

So I am going to round 2! But I just barely made it to the 2nd round and that's even though I promoted like crazy without trying to seem like I was spamming anyone. So I've been working on the 2nd part of the story this weekend which I now have to go over and edit so that I can submit it by this Tuesday's deadline. So please remember that voting starts on Wednesday, January 13 and you can vote everyday until the voting stops on Saturday.

Thank, Sarah. Yeah you might have to check later tonight or tomorrow since Terry Kate the one who organized the contest is pretty busy and hasn't had the chance to get all the entries ready to be posted.

Well the 2nd Part of my story is finally up so remember vote for it once a day, please! Here is the direct link. I'm up against one of the most voted entries from the 1st round. As for what happens if someone wins it's not completely settled but the winner will probably win a critique or something from the host Erin McCarthy.

Thanks Phoebe, sorry I was remiss. I only voted twice but I kind of had personal stuff go crazy in my life so I never made it back to vote again.
Will check out the second part right now and vote!

I am so sorry you didn't win through to the finals. At least you participated. No-one can take that from you. I would still like to read your story, though. When will it be finished or published, if it's already finished. If you know, that is. LOL No pressure!! LOL
