GUESS WHAT! You'll
Chatterbox: In This Month's Issue
GUESS WHAT! You'll
GUESS WHAT! You'll never guess! Never!
I have *dances around* written my story for the March issue's "Daring Rescue" competition! Yes! Haha, I haven't entered a contest since Muse's (no, I don't get Muse anymore, it's a great mag, but Cricket is better) November/December 2008 story contest! I didn't win in that one, so I guess I sort of lost my courage and just never really got around to entering any more contests, even when I saw one that interested me. But maybe now, things will be different. Neither of the contests in January or February really sparked my interest, but this one did! I am sending it in the day after tomorrow.
Anyway, just wanted to share the news! I will post my entry here on March the 26th. I want to keep it very private until then. No offense or anything.

Send it right away if you can, Wolfgirl67. Sometimes the mail is really slow reaching us, and the 25th deadline for receiving entries is this coming Thursday.

@Old Cricket: I'll try, but today is Sunday, so I thought I'd just use it to get my story perfect. OK, I'll give you one little thing. It's about a sheepdog. That's all. :)
Andy P. C. says-oh my gosh!-aged. I think he's talking about you, Old Cricket!

I've entered poems before, it was fun.

I entered the "Daring Rescue" too! Good luck! I've entered many Cricket contests, and I've only gotten three honorable mentions... so I'm not super excited about it. But it was a good story of mine, so I hope it places well.

I entered this also. It probably won't count though. (a little over the word limit) :-( Oh well, doesn't mean that life's over. So anyways, good luck Wolfgirl!

GREAT JOB, WOLFGIRL!!!!!!! You did it!!!!! I might have read it, and I really would go and read it at the moment if I wasn't on a trip and away from my Cricket collection. I may actually have brought the issue with me, but I'm not positive. Anyway, CONGRATS!!!! I bet it was a really good story!!!

*goes over to read WG's entry* That's really good! And I agree. Sheep are dumb. ;-P And I like Border Collies, so good choice! Congrats!

@Leaf/Kimberly: Thanks, guys!
@Olive: Thank you! I like Border collies too. They're so intelligent! Sheep are kind of dumb, aren't they? LOL. ;)
