Rules for the giveaway:
Respond to either prompt by emailing amandahartmiller@gmail.com by midnight on November 5th on any or all of the first five days of this month to be added to a monthly drawing to win $30 toward writing communities, developmental editing, or consulting contracts. You will be entered into the monthly drawing once for every day you respond, up to 5 times per month.
Responses can be very rough and do not need to have a beginning, middle, or end. Try for at least 250 words. Your response should be fiction, memoir, or poetry. I reserve the right to delete and disqualify any responses that contain inappropriate content or do not appear to be in the spirit of creative writing. Response questions about services do not count toward the drawing.
The drawing on the 6th of each month is random, not based on writing quality.
