The prizes for the 100 Articles in 100 Days Writing Challenge have been awarded…

… and it looks like I finished in the top 100 writers who took part in the competition.  Wow.

What this apparently means is that not only do I get the coveted Ezine Articles mug (at last!), I also get another mouse mat to go along with the one I already have.  But I will also be receiving a blanket and a hat too, both of which of course have the Ezine Articles logo on them.  No doubt my nice white cat will take up ownership of the nice red blanket.  Hmm.

Anyway now the challenge is over I have had time to sit back and think about what I actually achieved – and more to the point whether it was worth it or not.  Prizes aside I am still glad I did it and since I have had a lot of traffic from those 100+ articles it certainly was worth it.

I don’t think I will be taking part in the third challenge that starts on New Year’s Day though.  Instead I am going to try and set myself the challenge to get started on Hubpages again.  Will I try for 100 Hubs in 100 Days?  Possibly – we’ll see.  It would certainly be a nice challenge wouldn’t it?  In case you didn’t know, the Hubpages challenge is one of my five writing based resolutions for 2010.  Do you have any New Year’s Resolutions sorted out yet?

The reward for achieving my Hubpages goal will hopefully be some Adsense revenue instead of a new blanket for the cat (and the traffic of course).  But whatever happens in that regard, I shall keep you posted on this and my other resolutions for the New Year.
