Tell Your Travel Story–Win a $3,000 Vacation

Can you tell a great story in 450 characters- just about three Tweets?

If you entered the six-word memoir contest a few weeks ago, you should be in good shape to try this new contest from GoAhead Tours. They will give away 20 trips to lucky (and skillful!) players, so why not give it a try?

Contest ends February 5–that’s this Friday!  Don’t delay.

    Did you send one in? I found this contest on the expat blog. Where did you see it?
    I'm sending mine in tonight. Hope we win.
    Thanks for the comment on my blog. Also wanted to know if you're entering the $3000 manuscript contest on Writer's Digest by May 2010.
