4th ANNUAL IAP BIRTHDAY BASH!!!

Welcome to our Birthday Party! Four years ago on January 1st 2004, the IAP site went live to the public! In four short years we have grown to over four thousand members!

So once a year for the month of January we hold a month-long Birthday Bash to celebrate another year, and to blow off some steam! So sit back, and check out the contests and activities we have to offer for the month of January!

First and foremost is the Daily Trivia Contest! Each day in the month of January, somewhere about Noon Eastern time, a trivia question will be posted. Answer that question correctly, and you have a chance at one of two great prizes each day! And if you don’t win, then try again the next day! This year our Daily Trivia has three Trivia Masters. Randy, Bruce and Al have come up with some great questions.

The Pen and Penturner Contest will run from Noon January 2nd to 11:59 am January 3rd. This is a wonderful matching game where fifteen pens that have appeared in the Show Off Your Pens forum over the past year will need to be matched with the IAP Member who made them. Watch for information to be posted early in the morning of January 2nd.

Featured Pen â€" every week for four weeks, 1-8/9-15/16-22/23-29. Have you been enjoying those beautiful pens featured on the main IAP page this past year? Well now is your chance to vote for your favorite! But don’t expect this to be an easy contest, as they are all beautiful! At the end of the month we’ll have a run-off for the best Featured Pen of the year!

Penmaker’s Challenge â€" every week for four weeks, 1-8/9-15/16-22/23-29.This is the contest where you really get to show your stuff! Each week there will be a different challenge. A different aspect of penmaking will be highlighted with each of the four challenges. Are you up for the challenge?

Liar’s Club â€" Sunday the 6th through Sunday the 20th. This is a fun contest where the tall tale rules! We have some super prizes for this contest, so let the yarns fly!

Article Contest â€" Nominations 7-9, Voting 9-15. In case you haven’t noticed, we have articles on the IAP site! Lots of them, and good ones too! Nominate your favorite article for the contest, and then we’ll vote on everybody’s favorite.

Ugly Pen â€" Sunday 13th through Sunday 27th, Announce on the 31st. I hope you’ve been saving your worst efforts for this year’s Ugly Pen Contest! This contest gives hope to those of us who have “bad pen daysâ€, and perverse senses of humor as well! Only the very worst will make the grade here!

Best Signature â€" Nominations 25-27, Voting 28-30, Announce on 31st. Ever notice how some IAP members have a snappy little tag-line at the bottom of each post? That is their signature! Nominate your favorite, and then we’ll vote on the best of the best. Are there prizes? You bet!

The Birthday Bash is here for you! To have fun, to get your creative juices flowing, and to spin a tale or two! Don’t forget the site that makes this possible! The biggest prizes are in the Donation Drawing. Donate to the IAP, and you may be eligible for an entry into the drawing. Win the drawing, and you may be the envy of your fellow penturners!

So don’t just sit there, jump in and start having fun!

Scott.
