There's always at least 3 contest options, sometimes more.
If you want more contests to enter (not for this round of "The Contest Challenge" , but just as a list of contests available on WdC), feel free to check out the "Previously Highlighted Contests" dropnotes on the forum page. I list all the contests I've ever highlighted since the challenge started in 2017! |
Thank you for all the GPs, Anonymous! |
Schnujo's NOT Doing NaNoWriMo ... I didn't think you liked reviewing. |
I don't. I do it occasionally, but the GPs were apparently for my general awesomeness. Lol |

Always eager to share contests for your entering pleasure...
Remember to fan the people and contests you love by double clicking until you see the yellow/gold heart. For the item, don't fan them on the link above. You have to actually click the link and go to the page and fan it in the upper right corner of the contest page. Fanning on the link fans the owner, not the contest. |
JODY!! You spread so much cheer through "The Snail Mail Group" and all over WDC - hope your festive season is full of joy! Thank you! Lots of Love Sonali |

Schnujo's NOT Doing NaNoWriMo - Clockwork Orange is a completely different story/movie that Soylent Green. Two separate movies, Clockwork Orange released in 1971, Soylent Green released in 1973. Soylent Green reveals a world I feel we're moving towards, Clockwork Orange could occur today, but I don't feel it's as realistic as Soylent Green. |
Sum1's Home! - Well, with still not googling to see what I'm talking about ( It's my thread. I can do what I want to. ), I thought Soylent Green was people they were eating in Clockwork Orange. Clearly, IDK what I'm talking about, but I've seen at least one, if not both movies. I've not read either book. lol Apologies for thinking you were mistaken, ~SilverMoonNoel~, when I was the one mistaken. Hahaha! Thanks for the clarification. On an unrelated note, here's a link you should consider for your blog. What a fun poem and I don't even like poetry. lol https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=524192676415119&id=100064731724463&set=a... |
Sum1's Home! - Did you know they were making a sequel combined for the two movies. Soylent Clockwork Purple and they are serving real soylent green as snacks, shhhh …. |

Where do you plan to create a link to "The Contest Challenge" this week? |
December's offerings at
are pretty awesome!

Beholden has waited patiently for his Newsfeed Celebration for "The Contest Challenge" . He completed a whole year quite a while back. I've waited on his celebration because I've found not as many people participate in sending when it's not a lot of people being celebrated. However, I'm discovering that seems to only apply when MBs are regularly priced. So, since MBs still cost only 5k, I'll send you 10k if you send a MB to Beholden. The usual rules apply... * Must count for CR * Must include a mention of his success in "The Contest Challenge" {item:2109126} * Post below or email me to get your payment Today is the last day of the MB sale, so send it while you can double your investment! Tomorrow's senders revert back to the typical 12k for a regular Newsfeed Celebration when MBs cost 10k. |
I need some volunteers to send some MBs she's earned to 🎄pwheeler joy to the world. I'm paying 10k per MB. (Yes, right now, they only cost 5k, so this is an easy 5k for you.) You can post below or email me. Pre-Thank you! |
I know you're all dying to know what the new contests are for December's round of
Well, wait no longer!
Remember: When you find a contest you love and want to keep up with, go to the contest page and click the heart in the upper right corner until it turns gold to become a fan of the contest! You can fan the contest owner from the contest page (under the title) or from this post right here by double clicking their heart until it becomes gold. Clicking until their heart turns black only makes them a favorite of yours. That's private so they can't reward you for being a fan, thus why I recommend the double click. Not everyone rewards their fans, but some do, so better safe than sorry. Plus, people find it very encouraging to see they got a new fan! Nothing Favorite Fan Not Good Better Best Note: I couldn't figure out how to make the heart a light gray like the actual heart you'll see, so just pretend. lol |
Review of Hope Unseen: The Story of the U.S. Army's First Blind Active-Duty Officer by Scotty Smiley and Doug Crandall Reviewed for
Remember that purchasing from the link above helps WdC. The title says it all. This is a remarkable story about a US Army officer who is blown up by a VBIED (vehicle-borne improvised explosive device -- pronounced v-bid with no E). He was blinded in both eyes (completely blind, not "just" legally blind) and they also removed part of his skull to allow his brain to swell without too much damage from the brain injury. (That was later replaced and he now has part of a fake skull on his head. The Army, naturally, assumed he'd be medically retired (as I was after I got blown up), but his wife refused to sign the papers until he was awake and aware. It's a good thing! Because now he's teaching a leadership class at West Point, the US Army's military university, and he's still an officer in the Army! Some of what happened to him is his own doing, for sure. He's a strong and capable man. But he also knew an Army General who put in a good word for him here and there and helped from time to time. If I recall, the General is even the one who helped him not get discharged and helped him get a position at West Point. This isn't to say Captain Smiley didn't work hard or didn't deserve to be given another chance. It's only to say that this is a very unusual case and not one that another injured Soldier should count on until they also have a General in their corner. Smiley also placed a lot of faith in God and says, of course, that God is who really brought him through. The General said at his Purple Heart ceremony (the ceremony where CPT Smiley got his award for being injured by the enemy) that God wasn't done with CPT Smiley and had big plans for him. Apparently so and apparently He planned to use the General to bring about some of those plans. CPT Smiley has done a lot of remarkable things since he was blinded -- He won the 2009 Soldier of the Year, won an ESPY (I think it's called -- some ESPN sports award), has learned to surf, has skydived, and has climbed Mt. Rainier. This audiobook is 6 hrs 20 min and is rated 4.7 on both Audible and Amazon and the book is 256 pages long. I definitely recommend this book, especially for those who love military stories! |
