I keep thinking about submitting to one of these. I may just have to give it a go. Maybe I should add it to my goal list 😀

Rachel Poli once again collected writing contests for us, this time for June and July 2018. Thank you very much Rachel!
Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure Rachel. Thanks for all your work!
Good luck if you submit your work anywhere.
Thanks, you too! Have you submitted anything lately?
I haven’t. I’ve been writing and working. But I made it a goal to submit this month. How about you?
Good!
I actually wrote stuff last month and then I forgot to submit them… The deadlines were May 31 and I didn’t realize it until June 4. -_-
Oh no. Maybe you can submit those pieces next year?
I’m gonna try to fit them in somewhere else, I think.
That works too. All the best!
Thanks, you too!
Thanks for sharing these, Rachel.
My pleasure. Good luck if you submit to any!
