nudes-rowI hope you guys have been busy creating entries for the second annual contest to win a nude Enchanted Doll!I've been thinking about the details long and hard and finally came up with the format of this year's contest.

I might need a ghost writer for this blog soon.Here are the rules: There are no rules! No, just kidding. There are rules, but not too many.The birthday contest works like this: You make whatever you want , as beautifully and as artfully as you can, send it to me and I choose my favorite "gift". Whoever made the best entry wins the contest, and a nude doll. Because there are no restrictions on the mediums and the entries will be so diverse, runners up will receive a small prize as well.1) Submission dates:  January 30th- March 1st, 2010.
