Memoirs, Ink.

What's Your Status? Contest


Memoirs Ink is having a free mini-memoir competition inspired by some great lines we’ve seen on gmail status, facebook status, twitter and others. The status line, while it can be a boring travelogue or list of things done in a day, is also a great form of mini memoiring. (Yes, we just made that word up.) So email us your status (150 characters MAX) and win cool prizes.

  1. Email entries to memoirsinkstatus@gmail.com

  2. Put your status right into the subject line (or die!).

  3. 150 Characters MAX

  4. The body of the email should contain only your name and alternate email address if you have one, and your phone number.

  5. Begin the status with your name (I.e.: Felice Austin is writing a status line.)

  6. You don’t have to use the word “is.” Just make sure to begin with your name.

  7. All entries should be original. If you win, or are a finalist, you have to sign a simple contract saying your work is original and assigning us rights to publish it. Yada yada. Winners and finalists published.

  8. Prizes: One Grand prize per month. June Prize: $100 Memoirs Ink dollars or merchandise of your choice from our store.

  9. You may enter as many times as you like.

  10. This contest is open to anyone in the world. All ages.

  11. Deadline:The last day of every month. – Winners announced around the 15th of the next month(unless it falls on a Sunday).

  12. Email questions to a different email address: jane @ memoirsink (dot) com. Please don’t send statuses here!

This contest will be judged by: Felice, Jane, Jill, and two guys named Adam.
