The Giant Squidoo Challenge



Well, I'm off and running in the Giant Squid Challenge. The competition started on May 1st and ends June 15th. I'm not convinced that I'll finish with 50 pages/lenses (the goal) but it's worth a try. The Squidoo powers-that-be have made this next competition fun by recruiting lensmasters into teams and the team that ends with the most new pages wins!

I was recruited by a very cool team leader named "kab". You can read about our team at this link: www.squidoo.com/Squid-Squad. Kab has more than 200 Squidoo lenses with more topics than you can shake a fist at...She has written pages on everything from Jello Recipes to Shakespeare's Oxymorons to Guatemalan Worry Dolls.

So I started with 17 lenses and so far I've added 3 more. I've got three more in the works and I'm going to finish at least one more, today. It's fun, it's addicting, and it's worthwhile.

It's going to be a challenge for me, for sure, since I'm also about to throw my hat in the ring and start the medical transcription phase of my life. I'm applying for a position as a contract worker for a medical transcription company. I'm a little nervous but I'm also excited about that. It's sink or swim time, I'm afraid.

Go Kab's Fab Squid Squad! Wish us luck! Wish ME luck!
