Hello all you HP staffers! I am but a humble writer asking you to PLEASE start a new contest! I think it is great for the site, promotes web traffic and encourages writers to create quality content. PLEASE?
Contests are fun and motivating, but I'm sure that they take lots of time to organize and run. I don't expect that the HP staff are ready to set up a new contest so soon after the March one! Another contest in the future would be nice, though.
That is true, I wish there were a way for the community to start contests that the HP staff could promote somewhere so the majority of writers could see the contest and partake in it.
Kathleen, since it is poetry month have you tried either Frank Atanacio's or Sunny River's poetry challenge?
I didnt do their challenge, I found it hard to keep track of all the pieces everyone contributed, so I made my own poetry hub which I know you read because you left a lovely comment at the end
Hopefully May will bring in some new challenges, I thrive off challenges!
I know that it is hard to keep track of Frank's but Sunny's is just for fun. You pick a theme from a list and write a poem.
If you like a challenge to get you motivated, why not try the 30 hubs in 30 days challenge? Its not officially by HP but it could really help.
I like the 30 in 30 challenge, because I love challenges lol, but I would really like a community based challenge that helps me grow my HP network

Are there any rules or restrictions for arranging unofficial prize contests on HubPages - for example, an author contest?

A Contest will provide friendly competition that will boost creativity. I am not sure how many people need this creative boost as much as I do but I am pretty sure many of us will appreciate the contest.

We had three or four HP contests last year. This year, I don't think there has been one yet. I know one was cancelled.The contests challenged me to write. Therefore I say, bring them back!

When I had joined hubpages in June, a lot of excitement was going on about reading and writing hubs on Food. So, I am dying to know how often do we have contests? When will the next contest on hubpages be? Thanks in advance.

Paul, please, please, please make it so we can choose multiple groups somehow.... ?? A lot of people have said they too want multiple groupings and it can only help!! I think the moving of the "next hub" link REALLY was great - so this would only add to that success. Besides, the tag...
