The 2012 MoGo7000 Challenge Continues!
Catherine Young, a writer and friend from Delaware, has graciously offered to sponsor this year’s MoGo7000 Challenge. Thank you, Cathy!
And the good news for writers is, you don’t have to change a thing. So…are you currently working on a book? If so, Catherine Young and I want to help you finish it AND give you an opportunity to win $100!
All you have to do is write 7000 NEW words (not rewrites) on a book project during the calendar month and you’ll have an entry. Meet the goal one month and you’ll have one entry. Meet it 10 months and you’ll have 10 entries and increase your chances to win!
And it’s all free! Want more details? Check out the MoGo7000 Challenge page for the guidelines. And yes, you can work on more than one book at a time.
You have a few more days to meet the June goal, so what are you waiting for?
Thank you, Catherine Young, for your support of writers!

We’ve just received word from The Cove that they have opened up at least two more single or double rooms for us! Yay! So if you’ve been hesitant to register because of lodging options, here’s your unexpected chance to snag a double or single room! Of course, we still have spaces available in the triple/quad room as well.
The 2012 Christian Communicators Conference will be August 29-September 2 at the Billy Graham Training Center at The Cove.
We also have a few more “Conference and Meals Only” spots available for those who are able to arrange off-site lodging. But you must hurry. The conference is limited to 30 participants.
