I just created a new account, @thecontesttrain

This account will be used to keep track of my holiday writing contests, and if I have time, I'll also index other content creation contests as well.

I'm disappointed in my lack of effort for Halloween this year, so I decided I would go whole hog for Christmas (at the minimum, I'll be putting up 50 SBI shares - see @steembasicincome). I haven't done a Christmas contest since 2017, IIRC (maybe 2016).

In any case, having an account solely for the purpose of contests will make it easier for me to keep track of the contests. In addition, since I do post controversial content on this account, it will provide a way for folks that might not want to follow ME to keep track of my contests.

Something I would like to do is to maybe put together a consortium of contest makers, but I don't think I'd have the time/energy to do that...

Right now, there is nothing on the page

So what I'd like from y'all are the following:

• First, go follow the account
• Second, get any friends of yours that create content (writing, photos, etc) to follow the account
• Third, if there is anyone who does logos, I'd like to commission a logo for the account, perhaps in the line of merging Christmas, Halloween, and a friendly train. It's worth 10 shares of SBI to me, if I choose your design
• Fourth, if you know someone that likes to design logos, ask them to take a look at it.

The logo might be something like this, but with a separate boxcar for each holiday and maybe have the engine based on a Steem theme...maybe change out the Santa conductor for a cartoon of me
(contest themes -Halloween and Christmas for sure, maybe one for SBI or Steem promotion or one each)

I may or may not run a Thanksgiving contest just to get some clicks on the account; I'll know by next week. But I'll announce it from there ;>

Happy Halloween! oh dern, too late ;>
