The Ordinary Guru Contest August 5, 2014
Posted by nrhatch in Humor.comments closed
Have you ever met an everyday, ordinary guru who helped you break a myth that held you back, sparked insight, or helped you see the world a little differently?
If so, tell your story by entering the Ordinary Guru Contest.
From the Ordinary Guru website:
We’re looking for short stories, essays, memoirs, photo essays, graphic stories, cartoons, and poems about ordinary gurus.
Ordinary gurus teach us what we need to know in order to expand our view of ourselves and the world.
These gurus aren’t just people— they can also be anything in nature that offers you an insight or life lesson, perhaps a pet, a wild animal, or even a tree that helps you see yourself or life differently.
No fee to enter! Fabulous prizes!
First Prize: $5,000
Second Prize: $2,500
Third Prize: $1,500
NO PURCHASE OR PAYMENT OF ANY KIND IS NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. PURCHASE OR PAYMENT DOES NOT IMPROVE YOUR CHANCE OF WINNING. Open only to legal residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia, and Canada (excluding Quebec), who are 18 years and older. Contest ends August 31, 2014.
Winners will be announced on or around October 1, 2014. Selected stories from the entrants will also be published in White’s forthcoming anthology, The Ordinary Guru Project.
Subject to complete Official Rules.
Good Luck!
