So the sweet, adorable, helpful, and always around with a kind word (or more), Northwoman -- SVM Addict #4 -- revived the very popular I Write the Songs Contest for another round. A favorite contest for many of us because it incorporated music with the SVM characters we all love so much.
Many of us know this already ... I'm just a little late posting about it. So since I haven't been doing contest posts I'm going to skip the contest spiel and just direct you to the dates and where to go to submit your stories, read entries, and find voting info.
Submit Your Stories
This Sunday, July 15th, is the last day! The final submission will be accepted on July 15th at 8:00 PM, Pacific time (10:00 PM Central)Once the judges have finished judging, Northwoman will give writers the heads up to post. The final posting on Fanfiction.net (or whereever) should be around July 31.

Winners will be announced August 10. But to be honest ... while having winners is cool and a must by the definition of a contest. I see everyone involved as a winner. So I just want to close with a couple of thanks ...- A big thank you to Northwoman for hosting this contest once again! It's a fantastic idea and so inspiring!
- Major thanks to all the writers who submitted their stories! So far 15 entries! As an avid fanfic reader, I hang on to every word you write and appreciate your works.

Reading and reviewing ... murgatroid_98, VAlady, My_Universe, onefee27, alisonnorthmanmaille, Duckbutt, TeaCupHuman, mazzablue, fffbone, Sassyvampmama, erin1705 ... and I could go on and on.
