We are always looking for ways to help struggling and aspiring writers any way we can. We know resources are tight, especially during this time of year. So we decided to have a holiday contest that starts today and ends December 15. Winners will be announced right here on the blog on December 23, just in time for Christmas.

To enter, here’s all you do:

• Do a post on your blog about why you should win a free year in the Kingdom. What would you do with all those resources? What are your goals? What’s been holding you back? Tell us about your writing journey and how you believe Freelance Writers Academy’s Kingdom of Paidalot can help you reach those goals.

• Come back here and share your headline in the comments of this post, with a link to your post so we’re sure to check it out.

• Spread the word about your post in social media. Social sharing volume will be a factor (but not the whole deal) in our judging.

The prize details:
