does anything come free in life?.... unless you marry a billionaire's daughter who dies within a short time leaving the whole fortune for you to eat, drink and merry 

Ranjith

I'll spend the rest of my life thinking about her.

Oops I read that as CoAlgate when I entered this thread :(

Ranjith

For several days, I thought that the toothpaste and CoAlgate had the same spelling until one day when a newspaper report said that someone from Colgate asked people not to get confused between Colgate and Coalgate!

First blog your story on the given theme on your blog as a blog post. Then via the contest page, go to the Submit Your Entry link. Then follow the instructions. You do not have to copy paste your story on Indiblogger. You only have to give the link to your blog post.

Ranjith

Is anything thinking about writing your own real life story when you were the one ignoring the warning signs? 

Deepti Gahrotra
from Ilmenau
10 years ago

Yes I did Ranjith.. the story I entered is non-fiction and about the people in my life.

I like this contest - It allows us to be creative. Renie, pls come up with more contests like this  I am writing this comment as an open commitment to participate in this contest and not forget about it after some time!!!! 

Ranjith

So many bloggers with doubts! 

TF Carthick

The doubts are early warnings of the direction in which the contests is heading. If you ignore them, there may be serious problems in the end when results are announced.

Ranjith
from hyderabad

Too tough competition! :)

Priyanka Roy Banerjee

me too have doubts, ranjith  i'm super-confused with the plethora of contests and all their rules. 

for this one too, there seems to be no word limit mentioned, right?

Ranjith
from hyderabad
11 years ago

There is no word limit.

Simply ignore all the rules. Read the topic and write something related to the topic given. As simple as that! 

If you are still confused, wait till 15th of May - the date from which other entries will be made visible. You can get an idea of the contest by reading other entries.

Renie,

 

Thanks for the clarifications.

I have submitted my entry.

I verified that my profile is complete and has all the details.

Hope I will win a good prize! :)

 

Thanks,

Narendra

One more doubt and it is about the following statement:

All entries must have a link to the My Healthy Speak Blog

The above link is pointing to: http://bit.ly/K6TIoa

But, it actually redirects to: http://www.myhealthyspeak.co.in/

 

So, which link should we use? Is it ok to use any of the links or do we need to use both the links!?

Please clarify.

 

Thanks,

Narendra

Renie Ravin

You could use either, but http://www.myhealthyspeak.co.in/ is preferable!

Narendra Kumar

Hi,

Can you please clarify about this:

"An entry shall be considered eligible only if it includes all the details of the person visiting the said link and following all instructions specified therein. He/she shall hereinafter be referred to as “the Participant”."

So, do we need to write our name, address, etc in the blog post itself?

What are the details that we need to provide?

Please clarify.

 

Regards,

Narendra

Renie Ravin

Hey Narendra, you don't have to worry about that for now - simply submit your post as in any other IndiVine contest. When you have the time, update your IndiBlogger profile. Please don't put your address in your blog post!
