The wooden anniversary

(A birthday bum)*

The traditional gift for the fifth anniversary is wood. Or something made of wood. Both of which seem entirely appropriate for the fifth anniversary of a blog about spanking.

For most of those five years A. and I have talked about having a contest on this blog but have never quite gotten around to it. However since someone should get a present being that it's a birthday -- not to mention a spanking -- we decided this would be the perfect occasion for a contest.

Why Should Natty Get A Spanking?

To enter this contest, you must complete the following sentence in 10 words or less (for a maximum total of 15 words):

"Natty needs a spanking because _______________ ."

I must warn you that A. is a curmudgeon of an editor (which I always find yummy hot) so make sure your entry is grammatically correct, spelled properly, apostrophes are in the right place, etc. Entries will be judge on creativity and general cleverness (i.e. it's totally subjective). You can submit entries either in the comments section of this post or you may email them to me at nattyspanked [at] yahoo [dot] com.

The deadline for entries is August 31st at 11:59pm, Pacific Standard Time (8 hours behind UK time; 3 hours behind the East Coast). A. arrives on September 28th so he'll be here to help me pick the winner sometime in early October and administer the prize.

And what is that prize? You get to direct A. in spanking me over Twitter with accompanying TwitPics. You get to pick the implement(s), the position(s), and the number of strokes. Note that my health issues (i.e. being on blood thinners) will present some constraints, which I will appraise the winner of before the spanking commences.

OR

A handmade wankin' spankin' tool similar to the one pictured in this post but with a handle in your choice of cording or ribbon. It can, of course, also be used by a partner, but it will hurt more. ::grin::

AND

I'm in the process of putting together a book compiling my best posts and all of my stories, including one or two that have not been previously posted. The winner of this contest will receive the first copy, which should be out around December.

oOo

You may have noticed that I finally got around to completing what I hadn't quite finished for last year's anniversary, namely, creating a banner of my very own. It's only taken me a year to get a working scanner (though I still can't get the printer part to print black text...but I digress). The header of this blog now sports a cute drawing by A. referencing a popular pin-up girl from his youth.

Now I just have to figure out how to make my banner available for others to use (i.e. toplists)...
