Here is a link to the press release with more information: http://www.logicalexpressions.com/pr02-08iw.htm If you love dogs and love to write, this is your chance to tell us your best dog story. The winning essays will be published in a book and get a license for Logical Expressions' IdeaWeaver writing and creativity software ($50 value). The Grand Prize winner also receives the other prizes, $50, the opportunity to be featured in a case study (great PR for freelance writers!). The contest ends on 3/31. Rules and the entry form for the Dazzling Dogs writing contest is available here: http://www.ideaweaversoftware.com/contest.aspx Susan Daffron Logical Expressions, Inc. http://www.logicalexpressions.com |

Can you really return it, and how once you have used it? USU software cannot be returned once opened or used. No offense, but is this an invitation for a short essay, or to try out the software rather? I would rather have had a straight forward approach, but it is interesting marketing. |

| PatriciaJ11 | Posted – 4/2/2008 10:01:02 PM | show profile It's not the cost, it's just nice to know you have to purchase something in order to submit. I spend a lot of time reading stuff that sounds interersting and then it always - and you have to buy this also. maybe just a bit jaded - btw, 50 is my weekly budget for food. So it is not just peanuts to some. Maybe when I'm earning more, it will seem like peanuts. Or when my kid is out of college... hope you have fun and win!! I also have dog story... Good luck to you!! |

| writesonwater | Posted – 4/27/2008 2:40:47 PM | show profile No way -- you have to buy $50 in software, and the prize to one lucky winner is your $50 back?! THere are better ways to get dog stories out there. |
