Appear in the Pages of BLADE Magazine

Since I know from my e-mail inbox there are as many gun/knife readers of this blog as there are writerfolk, here's a cool offer to appear in the pages of BLADE magazine.

"WIN A KNIFE! Tell us what knife you carry. Add a little history or an anecdote. Try to include a photograph (if digital, at least 600 KB but no larger than 2 MB) of you with your knife. We will publish your comments in an upcoming 'The Knife I Carry.' Your name will then be entered in a drawing to win a free, high-quality, name-brand pocketknife. The drawing will be Nov. 15. Mail to: BLADE®, P.O. Box 789, Ooltewah, TN 37363-0789, or e-mail steve.shackleford@fwcommunity.com. If you send your entry by e-mail, please include your physical mailing address in case you win the pocketknife."

I'd submit to this, but I work at BLADE. My stories aren't all that interesting anyway, except for that one time I woke up in a basement with my wrist chained to that machete-wielding hobo cranked on meth and all I had to defend myself was a pocketknife rusted shut and a pair of pliers. But other than that, no, you probably wouldn't be interested.
