I've spoke plenty on contests in the past so it's no secret that I enter each contest with a specific reason in mind. The Golden Claddagh was no different. My reason may seem a little off with GC, but to me it was sound. I've coveted the 1st place Golden Claddagh pen for a few years. This year was no different. And as I mention above, I came in 2nd which means a silver pen, which is okay since I prefer silver over gold anyway, and since I'm hoping this will have been the last time I am eligible to enter GC, silver is just going to have to be okay.

The only contest left on my horizon is the Golden Heart. I have two, possibly three, manuscripts that I'd love to enter in the Golden Heart, but all of it will depend on finances and how soon I can get this next manuscript polished. Since, I just sent one manuscript off to an agent I shouldn't have a problem finding the time to make my Biblical shine.

Are you planning on entering RWA's Golden Heart? If so which category and how are you preparing your entry?

Happy Tuesday,

Renee
