We’ve got a bit of a challenge going and, if you’re just now joining us, you’re more than welcome to jump into the fray.
For this and the next three weeks, you can leave a comment asking to be entered into a random drawing for a new WordPress themes from Elegant Themes. We’ve had two winners already: Meg of Pressure Cooker and Miranda of Becoming My Ideal, both cooking blogs. That will make good use of the portfolio features found on many of the Elegant Themes templates. Simply leave me a comment on any of the yeah write #47 posts—Tuesday through Thursday—and you’re in. This challenge is in no way sponsored by Elegant Themes.
The yeah write superfecta challenge is explained in detail in this post. Over the next few weeks, your award-winning writing and storytelling can catapult you into either fortune and fame or into one of these four blog design elements:
- a new WordPress theme installed and mildly tweaked by Erica
- a new header [any platform] designed and installed by Q
- an 8×10 print or digital photograph with custom elements by Flood
- a complete review of your current blog with recommendations on how to improve your content, writing, search engine visibility and design by my Blogging Bash partner Alexis
If you’ve been with us this whole time, hey, thanks for sticking with it! The Google Docs spreadsheet Laverne at Kindred Adventures made specifically to save us all from mathin’ is public and available for you to download or review. And I wrote a results post for you yesterday; it’s right here.

One other thing before you go: I’m being hosted today at perky girlfriend Greta’s blog Not Enough Patience. You know how guest blogging works? It’s like Wife Swap, but without the helpless and crying husbands. So to get my people over to Greta’s place, she and I are linking it on the yeah write grid. Will you guys pretend to be my people for the day and go say hi? I’ll remove the link late tomorrow in time for voting. Thanks.
Yeah write #47 is open.

OK. Just found you. Just found this. I’m poking around and will be back for Yeah, Writingness.
Yeah! Write.
That’s awesome about your poking around. I hope to see you on the grid before it closes at 6pm your time!
Back again this week! 🙂 Please enter me in the drawing! Thanks!
This is my first time joining in and I have to admit, I am completely intimidated by all the blogging genius linked up before me. I feel like the new kid standing in the corner of the cafeteria right about now. Ha! Now I shall spend the rest of my afternoon reading all the enteries. My kids don’t really need to eat.
your kids can find their own way around the kitchen like mine do every week.
first time here…. really enjoying being exposed to all new great writers!
Great to be here this week. Put me in the drawing! tnx.
I am brand new to this and I am blown away by all the greatness that resides here. Wow!
In my comment do I specifically have to say that I want in? I haven’t but I do.
Look at how many people linked up!!!
AGAIN so many great ones! It’s going to be another tough week to choose – even with 2 extra votes! Great writing everyone!
I’m still trying! Fingers crossed and everything!
Linked up, commented, enter me to win something!

i’m very excited- linking up for the first time! 🙂
I’m back and joining the party again! It is my birthday, after all. OUR birthday. Happy Birthday Erica!!!
Haha!! Perky girlfriend. I’ll take that as a compliment. 🙂 It’s fun having you at my place today, Erica! Hope it wasn’t too stressful for you!
My goal this second time around is to comment on each blog AS I read it. Last time I ended up going back to several to leave comments after Thursday, and then I lost track of which posts I had already commented on. Wish me luck!
Hi! I linked up as usual but my icon isn’t showing up yet. Did you get my entry? I’m only worried because my computer is being very wonky lately and sometimes loads things and sometimes doesn’t…
Linking up because I love you.
What’s new, eh?
I really love the picture at the top of this post!!
Regarding your guest post – whatever on the ridiculously white teeth. UN FAIR. Your family is beeeeeautiful.
Secondly:
Q: What drives you in your writing?
E: Insanity.
Yes yes yes. That’s why I like you so much. And the tweaking thing that you do. But mostly your insanity.
Hey I didn’t get my friendly email reminding me it’s open… did you try to lose me?
