Count me in

Wow, her credentials go back a mile long. I'm almost intimidated to enter!

All the more reason to enter to test your skills

True.  Let's hope reigning Halloween article champ Ben decides to enter as well. 

We shall see. Though I'm hoping mine has a chance. One way to find out though

Lesley is another one of those people who was just awesome to have involved here. So gracious of her to offer her time reading our work and being a judge, for absolutely no compensation aside from the entertainment value of the articles.

This has been an amazing Fall already as far as the generosity of people we admire and respect, agreeing to involve themselves with little old us. I'm so thankful for that.

@vkimo: i'll see what my creative juices can think up.

since my memory was a bit hazy with my halloween outings in my past article, i haven't put much preparation into a second one. but i'll possibly use gilda for my illustrations again if i make another title card or just any other drawings for the article in general. the only three ideas that i have so far are an october-themed 'obscure gaming legacy' article, an article that focuses on in-school halloween activities, and one where i showcase a handful of spooky tunes that could be recommended to have playing at your house during halloween night as the kiddies come to your door for candy.

while going a tad off-topic, i was thinking about doing a commentary/walkthrough of monster party on youtube just for halloween, but the microphone driver on my laptop inconveniently stopped working. i can get video, but no audio. and yes i have a capture card, so no messy quality camcorder/webcam recording. just be prepared to hear my nasally sounding record voice

@Ben: If nothing else, scour some of my favorite blog sites that delight in Halloween for some inspiration on a subject. I recommend DinoDrac, I-Mockery, or VeggieMacabre.

i'll be sure to give them a look. thanks vapor!

Did anybody get the Article Contest email? I didn't get it, though I may have excluded my own email address. I'm not sure.
