My esteemed writing colleague, fellow blogger and friend Shelly Tucker (photo at left) is hosting a writing contest on her vastly read and very popular blog, This Eclectic Life. She has very kindly asked me to be the judge and I accepted. There are some clear details listed on her site, but the general theme is called “Scared Silly.”

I am eager to hunker down and read some scary stories this month! I want to encourage my readers to go over there and get the details and then write a post for this. If you enter you get a backlink or two from both her and I, which as you recall I have been writing lately about the value of! And if you win you’ll get some cash, which is always nice. Whatever happens, you’ll have a cool scary story post on your blog. And we all know your readers will love that! Also, as an added bonus, I will be posting an interview with the first prize winner here on my blog. So, until then I’ll be cuddling up with my biggest comforter sets and reading all this scary stuff!! eek.
