What Makes You, YOU? [That Giveaway/Contest I Promised.]

It is time for that long awaited giveaway (which has kinda morphed into a contest) and I'm so excited! :) Please read this post thoroughly and carefully.




Le Contest:

     I have over one hundred followers now, but the thing is, I don't know anything about you guys. I know it's unreasonable to think I could get to know everyone of you personally (I mean, my memory is horrid). But sometimes I ask myself things. Like, why did you follow me? To read my words? To communicate with me, and others? To broaden your view? To see how often my blog design changes? ;) I've asked myself not only these questions, but also ones along the lines of; who exactly are my readers?

So with this contest, I hope to gain an understanding of who you guys and what you'd like to become.

How To Enter:

     I want to learn about you. The "motto" for this contest is "What Makes You, YOU?" so create something that answers this question.
     Your entry can come in the format of a writing passage, video, picture/poster, PowerPoint, etc., etc. Just as long as it's something that I can view and share with others. :)
     As you create your entry, think about yourself. Ask questions. Probe your own soul. Who are you? What are your interests? Goals? Dreams? What makes you, YOU?



Once your entry is created, refined, edited, and such, comment below with a link leading to your entry. Or, if you'd like, just email me at rosecolflesh@gmail.com, with the subject title "What Makes You, YOU? Entry". :)

The Prize:

     We all know I love writing. It's a huge part of my life, a huge part of my blog, and an even bigger part of me. So, as this contest's prize, I'd like to create with the winner a character to be featured in one of my stories. This character can be however you'd like them to be. They can be like you, like your best friend, your boyfriend, whomever you'd like.
     You'll help me create a name, an appearance, a personality. You can even help me write a featured short scene that features the character we've created. :) The only thing is, if you win, I will require your email, so that I can contact you, and we can discuss the details of your character.

Consider and Understand:

     Here are some things you should know and follow:




Submit your original work - all work you submit must be your own. If you enter a post using photos from a social media site (such as Pinterest), please cite them correctly.

No judgement - there will be no judgment in this contest. I know, it sounds a bit weird but I will not judge your entry. I will randomly pick the top three, and they'll be featured in an announcement post.

Come as you are. :) - just be you because that's who I want to get to know. This is a contest about who you are, personally. Don't be afraid to share who you are with me. :)



Deadline:

     You riled all up and ready to express yourself? Good, because you have exactly three weeks to complete and submit your entry! :) That means the deadline is on April 22nd, at midnight. Depending on how many entries I get, there will be a short wait before I can compile the announcement post, containing the top three entries. (Please note that if you are in the top three, only one of the entries is the overall winner, who will receive the prize. The other two are only featured entries.)

Questions?

     Have a question? Just comment below and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. :)

I can't wait to see what you guys come up with! :)
   Remember;

Be you.

May I ask for your [honest] opinion?

via Alrighty. I recently just completed my one hundredth blog design order [insert celebratory balloons, glitter cannons, and thrown pies here]. ;} And I was talking to my mother about this in the car, to and from the store. Basically, what she said was; "You've been doing your designs for a long time, right? So why don't you start charging for your services?" This got me thinking, and in my eyes, I feel as though charging for my designs would probably make me feel like I'm getting cocky, and too proud of my work, yah know? But I wanted to ask you guys, my honest readers; do YOU think my services are worth spending money on? Like seriously. If you wanted a new design would you choose me, even if it cost you ten dollars? I know most of it is just a matter of opinion. Every designer has their own way of doing things. Their own unique style. It all depends on what the "order-er" wants. I'd like to know if I have the capabilities of giving s...

I have so many ideas, and so little time...

Well. I've created a writers group, so I can check that off my list of dream tasks (huzzah!) but now that I've completed one task, I've come to reveal that I have a whole other bunch of ideas to set upon making real, as well. I want to--oh so badly want to--create a writers support group, in the form of a collaboration blog. Mackenzie and I had considered doing this, but since we haven't talked much lately, I guess... Well, maybe there are some volunteers out there who would like to help me make this idea come to life? Hm? If not, it's alright, I may have to postpone this dream for a (small) while anyway because I am very busy grooming other dreams. Like... + My writers group. As mentioned previously, this group is to help me prepare my manuscript for publication, but is very much still in the "forming phase". + ( The research of) Getting my book(s) published . Gosh guys, this is going to be a lot harder than I thought (did you know an author must...

Guest Post by Bethan

Hey there! It's Bethan from Think. Read. Write. Dream. The beautiful Rose was kind enough to let me guest post on her amazing blog - which is such an honour! I'll start with a little about myself. :) I'm 14 years old, with curly brown hair, eyes that don't really have a specific colour and very pale skin. I'm also really small... I'm right-handed, a bit socially awkward, a perfectionist and a tiny bit crazy. I am a Christian that loves reading, writing, blogging and drawing. I've wanted to be a writer since I was really young and am always daydreaming. I love to play the piano, and have just passed my Grade 4 exam. If you enjoy this guest post, you can head over to my blog where I post book hauls, occasional tags and awards, quite a few of my writings and a little bit of randomness (okay.. a lot of randomness.) Here's a little taste of my writings. I hope you enjoy. :) The sky is dark with grey clouds and I hear a faint rumbling coming from abo...
