Contest: Travel Diary
What did you do this summer? Visit Mayan ruins in Mexico? Check out Beefeaters at Buckingham Palace? Hike around your hometown? Yes? Perfect!
Wing It! is now accepting submissions for its new theme, "Travel Diary." Send us a non-fiction essay of no less than 500 words (and no more than 1000) about where you went and what you did this summer—even if you just lounged around your local haunts—and win 2 round-trip tickets on Virgin America, the hippest airline around!
Think you can do that? Your entry must be postmarked by October 15, 2009 to be accepted. Winners will be announced no later than October 30, 2009. Read the official rules for all the details.
A crayfish boil on the Bayou or couscous in Casablanca—share your story!
