Today is a big day in Activerain

You know what today is.  It's June 30th, the last day of the month.  Yes, you are reviewing your monthly goals, checking on how you stack up at the 1/2 yearly mark and making necessary adjustments to make sure you meet year end goals.  

But, there is also the "End of the month, on the edge of your seat" phenomenon. Yes, it is Active rain conteststhe "What Contests Will They Roll Out Next Month' Day!"  If you are anything like me, I log in the last day or so at the end of the month, hoping to see an upcoming contest posted under the Resource menu.  After all, there is much to consider when contemplating new contest topics:

  • What if I write a blog today, that could have been used in a contest that is posted in the next few days?
  • What if they post a "30 in 30" contest and I need to get a head start on writing a bunch of drafts?
  • Getting a head start on contests and completing them long before the deadline is very satisfying.
  •  I need some time to think and plan for those specific topics!

Don't get too excited, I just checked and there is nothing new, yet. :(

Catherine, I have never looked at it like that before!  An early posting would help those who like to plan ahead and know what they are facing for the following month.

Ironic that you wrote this post and I just happened to find it. I'm hosting a July AR contest and I'm working on the post RIGHT NOW! Should be public in the next 30 minutes! Watch for it! Not sure kerrie will get it featured right away, but I'm sure you'll be able to find it!

CATHERINE, fun post! I didn't really ever pay attention to that. I haven't had much time to even consider some of the recent contests.

 

 By the way, did you know that Bob Stewart mentioned you in his recent webinar? YUP....your FB page about your horsey folks...he called you Celeste (I e-mailed him with your correct name) and he mispronounced Willamette Valley--he knew how to pronounce it and fixed it later....(I e-mailed him the pronunciation phonetically and he caught himself with a laugh, saying that he should have known better). If you didn't catch it, I wrote a post about it recently, and it's got a link to the webinar. Your FB page was shown about 1/2 way through the webinar (or later).
