Since I still only have 2 entries, I'm extended the deadline once more. But this will be the last time; after that, I'll just judge however few entries I get.

Also, the contest now has a news article! [link] Go give it some favelove so we can spread the word!

So, as I've gotten most of the prizes done for my last contest, I decided to start another one! (I know, I'm a bit of a contest junkie. Oh well!)

Presenting The Matchbox Twenty Madness Contest!

The Concept:
It's come to my attention over the years that I've gotten a ridiculous amount of creative inspiration from the amazing music and lyrics of Matchbox Twenty (and Rob Thomas in his solo guise as well.) That being said, I wanted to see how they might inspire all of you as well!

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to pick one of their multitude of songs and create a work inspired by it! It can be in any media: lit, traditional, digital, artisan crafts...even fanart and fiction are welcome! I want you to let your muse totally run amoc with it!

Deadline
January 1, 2010

Judges
Me for the moment, though I may recruit more later!
