I love a challenge.  Liz over at Successful Blog is having a Blog B-day on October 24 and has issued a 25 Word Birthday Challenge writing project.

 

The rules are as always simple, and easy to follow…

1. Twenty-five words is the limit.
2. Describe Successful-Blog — your experience, a memory, something funny, UPDATE: no need for love notes to Liz . . .
3. Post your answer on your blog UPDATE:OR JUST EMAIL IT TO ME..
4. Send the link AND the 25 words to Successfulblog [at] aol [dot] com
5. Entries must be received by noon, Sunday, October 22, 2006 UPDATE:OR AS SOON AS YOU CAN.
6. One entry per person.
7. As always, be nice.

 

And there are Prizes…

1. An autographed copy of Phil’s Book, 10 Ways to Make It Great!
2. An autographed copy of my dearest writing essay “Walking on Water.”
3. A guest post or an interview by/with me.
4. Every participant, of course, will get linked and front page notice on the 24th.

 

Well, since we’re not allowed to send love notes to Liz, I thought I might try a poem instead.

My favorite is Tuesday Night

cause spelling doesn’t count

and you can link your site,

There are drinks in the sidebar

whatever your delight.

Happy Blog B-Day to Successful Blog, and Liz, keep up the good work.  Stop by at Liz’s on Tuesday night for a Special Birthday Open Mic Night.

    2. Hey Liz,

      Glad you like it. Does this mean I don’t have to send you an email with the link? ;-)

    4. Joe, nice job - now the “love note” (of a sort) I just posted looks pretty lame - but it was exactly 25 words! All the best.

    5. Hey Carolyn,
      Thanks, That’s a compliment from an SOB like you. ;-)
      Yeah, I noticed. Welcome to the club.

      Let me know when your write your entry, it has to be good if it’s anything like the rest of your work.

    6. Hey Starbucker,

      I didn’t count, how do you count the hyphen? :-0

      You stayed with the travel thing pretty well, I just figured since I end every OMN with a poem of sorts, it would fit in pretty well for this. :-)

    7. Hi again Joe,

      Thank you so much.

      My entry just went out. I’ll send you a copy.

      Is it ok if I add you to my links?

      Carolyn

    8. Hey again Carolyn,

      Your entry was excellent. I think you got Liz’s philosophy down to a tee.

      And it would be a privilege to have you link to me.

      Thanks,

      Joe

    9. Joe: I just finished linking you to the three Write Heres. Thank you.

      Starbuck: I tried to leave a comment on Half Full, but Blogger’s having a problem. Neat entry, especially the ‘four-lane mountain highway’.

    10. Thanks Carolyn,

      A referral is worth a thousand words…

    11. Hi Joe, I guess in some circles a hyphen is a word, but hopefully not in Liz’s world! Keep writing your poetry - it wouldn’t be OMN without your little ditties.

      Carolyn, thanks for visiting my blog and attempting to post a comment - I checked out your Liz entry and it’s a gem. Like your blog too.

      Input by Starbucker | October 22, 2006 @ 7:55 pm

    12. Hey Starbucker,

      I would never count a hyphen as a word either. I doubt if Liz would. ;-)

      Hope to see you Tuesday night for the B-day party.
