Hiatus on Hold, and Write Club!

I'm putting my hiatus on hold. That sounds odd, but there it is.

However, I will take one in late July - a long, long one. I'll say more about that when I get closer to it.

Something I've been meaning to talk about:



1st RULE: You MUST talk about WRiTE CLUB - Spread the word far and wide so we can involve as many writers as possible. Display the WRiTE CLUB banner prominently on your own blog. Write a post about it. Tweet it. Mention it on Facebook. Heck, send up smoke signals if you can.
So, I'm talking about it. I'm joining in on the fun this year. Last time I voted, but didn't know fi I was supposed to since I wasn't signed up. I've seen Write Club several years now, and I've thought it looked really cool, so this year, I entered and I'm voting.

2nd RULE: You DO NOT talk about WRiTE CLUBOnce the competition begins you are not allowed to solicit votes. All of the writing entries are anonymous, and we want it to stay that way. This is not a popularity contest!
I'm excited to read the entries. Every year, I've been impressed. I don't think I would feel comfortable soliciting votes, and I think this second rule is just plain fair, and I'm thankful that it's part of the contest.

In fact, I'm just thankful for the way that DL brings out the best writing, the best comments, and the best in people around the blogsphere. He's a great guy.

Have you joined Write Club? Know DL? A visit to his site is always worthwhile and thought-provoking.

And now, I'm going to go visit. Somehow, I am going to catch up in the next few days . . . I hope.
