"To be, or not to be: that is the question," and my question for you today is do you have a love for writing and want to share your writing with others and win some cool prizes while you're at it, then you have to check out one of this month's contests called The Wordsmith's Contest, it's a contest for writers of any genre. If you would like to find out more about the contest and to enter, then get your pen and paper ready and check out the link below. May the spirit of Shakespeare be with you!

Great how you announced this, Denesia. Yes, I write a lot, mostly poems,but, ........... in Dutch. So you will not get it. LOL! Cheers, and success, Jacomina

Thank you Jacomina! I hope it will make some members want to enter the contest even more. The contest doesn't specify what language the writing has to be in and they are allowing poems in the contest, I think you should enter it. If your poems or anything like your images, then they're probably awesome. Thank you for the well wishes for the contest, wolfenshire came up with the idea for the contest and ashleyvs and wheatpenny are managing it, I hope they get tons of entries!

O WOW, really! Can I join? That sounds tempting. Now I have to understand what the conditions are, so I will study it.

At first they look quite complicated (at least, for such a klutz like me, lol!).

Wishing you a lovely day, or night, my friend.

Yeah, you can definitely enter the contest. I know you'll figure the contest rules out. If you get nervous about your poem being in Dutch and that people won't understand it, just remember that Google Translate is just a Google search away for all of us. lol I hope you have a lovely day or night too Jacomina!

Oh, oh, our friend Google is even worse than I am, And then to think that my poems are usually with a wink, with which I play in a funny way with Dutch expressions, and proverbs, then my entry will be "the hit of the week.". LOL Thanks again for your kind, and stimulating words, dear Denesia. Thumb up

You're welcome Jacomina! All of that just makes your poems more interesting to read. Your entry would be the hit of the week and the hit of the month. lol

You always bring a big smile on my face, Denesia! Thank you so much ! ! Jacomina.jpg

You're welcome Jacomina! You do the same for me and you give me a little comic relief too. lol I like your photo! I love your hat and your scarf, they go perfectly with your denim jacket and your hair.

Well "hugging-Denesia" LOL!

I have a poem that I feel very touched, and I try to translate into English; despite the fact that meanings will be lost, because there is so much difference in the name. And now I don't know the conditions, how big the thumbnail should be, do you know that? Wishing you a fantastic weekend, my friend. Jacomina

I'm a dancing Denesia today. lol j/k I can't wait to read your poem after you turn it in. I'm sure we'll still understand the poem even though some of the meanings will be lost. We'll let our imaginations take over and fill in the blanks. I don't see a thumbnail size either, but the thumbnail size for the animation contest is based on thumbnail sizes from other contests, so I would go with that size and it is a maximum of 300 pixels (wide) x 350 pixels (height) in .jpeg or .gif format (72 dpi). I copied and pasted that directly from the animation contest description. I hope that will help you create the perfect thumbnail. I hope you have a fantastic weekend too and good luck!

For me I see a lovely Denesia who can't stop in dancing her pirouette, WOW! So I try to make you listen to me between this, while giving you a sign meant to say "thank you"! Anyway, I will go see the terms of other contests, so that I will do nothing wrong/stupid.
