Dpoll 29: Do you join writing (story, tale, poetry) contests?
As I joined Steem I thought this platform was about writing.
You might find me naive I'm telling you this but that is why I joined.
The reality is you hardly find writers and readers here and the contests hosted are not doing well. Many writers left after the latest HFs and a part no longer writes on this platform.
There might be only a few writers (authors) left but.... here everyone can be a freewriter.
@mariannewest provides in a daily prompt and you only need to write about if for 5 minutes. You can write in English, German or Spanish.
You can write stories or poems as a freewriter or join some contest.
If you have a look at @freewritehouse you can recommend a freewrite but join WE-write or the beta readers group too.
@bananafish hosts Haiku contests in English and Spanish and there was more.
@felixgarciap hosts a "Lyric and Poetry" contest and
@tristancarax the "31 sentence" contest.
I agree most contests are not easy to join especially if you are a nonnative speaker or the rules (Haiku for example) differ from yours. Still, it is fun to join once in a while no matter if you ever win since this is a way to improve your writing skills and engage.
Do you join writing (story, finish the story, poetry) contests?
- No
- Yes, but no poetry
- Yes, but poetry only
- Other... (Please, tell what kinds)
- I know better writing contests to join (please, tell me)

You can write in your language and add a translation or join the CCC contests. You are allowed to write in your own language. See @team-ccc and steemit.com/@hive-166850.
Which language you like to write in?
You can start a contest yourself too. 💕
Ik verwarde met CreativeCoin (CCC), die me voortdurend "downvotes" omdat hun commissarissen niet begrepen wat er was geschreven:)
@ili0braz That is a bad reason for giving downvotes. Writing is being creative and you cannot downvote because you cannot understand it..They did not ask you?
ze schreven in koor dat dit niet creatief is (hoewel contest KVN's meestal volgens mijn scenario's wonnen), maar geen van hen toonde hun begrip van het Cyrillische:)
@ili0braz I understand. You wrote in Bulgarian or Russian?❤️
Always give a translation in English... they rule here and are the ones too lazy to translate. ❤️
Engels is voor mij het meest administratief. En nog belangrijker - sinds mijn jeugd speel ik oorlogsspellen met censuur)
@ili0braz wargames with censure ??? What is that?❤️
ik schrijf in oekraïens en russisch, maar ik begrijp heel oost-europees
@ili0braz Thst shouldn't be such a problem. It's laziness that doesn't make people translate. It's easier to downvote I guess. ❤️

Thank you for voting. Is there a reason why no poetry? Too boring, old fashioned or?

I'm just bad at rhyming...
@grider123 A poem does not need tobrhyme, a rhyme does, a lyric (songtext) can. ❤️
Yes, I’ve joined several kinds, including puns (Monday Punday), but I have to be in the write frame of mind ;)
Thank you. I understand that. A certain mood and time is needed for sure. Monday Punday I find too hard for me. Happy day. 💕

Yes, but seldom. I am not a good writer so I usually doesn't join. Hehe. 😂
Thank you for voting. I think you are better as you think you are. You can give free writing a try. It is not much different from what you do now. 💕
