Judges


What do you need to do to participate?

For this contest, all you need to do is a new piece of art which you feel represents you.
This can be done through photography, writing, drawings...pretty much any type of art

It can be about an event that happened to you and left you feeling a certain way, about your passions, about the things you like doing...ANYTHING, as long as it is expressing you

Rules:
All work must be your own
Only 1 submission per person (this means you can't send me three and tell me to pick the best out of them!)
Send via note with "About Me Contest" in the subject line to =the-photographicpoet
In this note, please include a thumb to your work as well as the link
Your work must be new as this is only fair to others who have to work hard!
No vulgarity or taboo language (I will simply ignore any work like this)
It has to be something that really does express you
One emotion needs to be included too


Art accepted:
Any art will be accepted.
However I ask that literature pieces be kept to a maximum of 1500 words (please include the wordcount in your note)


How will the winners be picked?
I will post a poll from December 10th, and the winners of the contest will be announced on New Years Eve (31st December)
