Just a reminder to any considering entering my brilliant competition that the closing date is fast approaching. Some people seem to be hesitant that their writing will not be good enough or that I will judge them harshly. NONSENSE! Why I am looking for is first and foremost a good story, and a strong understanding of The Kingdom of Animals. If you have that, it doesn't matter if you can't spell or if your sentence structure is a bit out there. Of course, if you have that AND a great story, you will probably win! Remember, writing is easy. Write about what you love, with passion, and believe in your story. That way, I'll probably love it too!
And for those of you who haven't heard about my competition (where have you been living?) - I'm looking for a short story set in the Kingdom of Animals (but with original characters, which means not ones you've read about in my books) of no more than 2000 words. The closing date is 23rd July. The winner will be notified within two weeks. The prize winning story will be published (with illustration by Iseult) with my new book RAINBOW AND THE MOUNTAIN OF LIFE, due out in August. Entry is free, so what have you to lose? Email me your entry at mungojudd@hotmail.com.
Terms and conditions: Entry to the competition is free. Friends and relatives to Mungo are allowed enter. Nodpot points may be gained from entering, but only if you are a member of the Disresponsible Nodpots. Winners will be notified before August 14th 2007. Entries are likely to be illustrated. All entrants must agree to allow Mungo publish their stories in whatever way he sees fit. Mungo's decision is final.

Oh, Mungo... You're so wonderful!!! **sigh**
Mungo, any chance of an extension to the deadline?
Some of us have been unfortunately unavailable to write most of the last two weeks.
Sorry VT, but you've had months to work on your stories. The July 23rd deadline stands, no exceptions
