I just submitted my entry, but it was a struggle to reach 1000 words, I’m usually a “small post” blogger. It felt like I was back at school, adding padding to my homework to meet teacher’s requirements.

I fourth (or fifth) ptvGuy’s comments. I have been working on an entry for the competition, but with shopping and vacations and shopping and work and more shopping and everything else, I have not been able to sit down at the computer for more than a few minutes at a time. Naturally, this has left me with a sub par article that is short of the minimum word count (I have about 700 or so). I really do think you should extend the deadline through January. Like most, I will have a lot more free time come the new year.

I’d enter, but I don’t have much to write about this particular subject. I think a lot of people are the same way.

I agree with ptvGuy, the timing is just rough for a lot of people.

Possibly consider extending it through January, which should give most people enough time to recover from the holiday season.

I know. I really should add real life to my list of possible hang ups.

Frankly, Mark, it comes down to time and timing. We had only thirty days from the initial announcement. We’re coming into the holiday season. We’ve got a bunch of work to get done before vacation. Many of us are stacking a few extra posts up in the queue to cover our blogs while we do other things. Etc., etc., etc.
