The Writer's Voice 2014 (Part One)

I can't believe it's been a year since I participated in The Writer's Voice, hosted by Brenda Drake, etc. The contest has returned and, whilst I didn't make it into the next stage, I had so much fun keeping people updated with stats last year that I'm going to do it again this year. It's also a year since I first joined Twitter - #TheWVoice people were having a whale of a time so I plunged in and signed up.

If you've made it through the Rafflecopter lottery and are one of the lucky 159 people in this round, I'll (hopefully!) have subscribed to your post so I can keep track when one of the coaches says she wants you on her team. I'm also trying to capture your Twitter handles (those I haven't already connected with), so if you can put a comment below with your details I'll be very grateful. Thanks!

Okay, off to update my spreadsheet now. Good luck to all the entrants!

P.S. I'm hoping to add updates here (as well as on Twitter), so stay tuned.
