Your Scribe, always trying to do the right thing in the woods, is launching an online response contest the prize of which is a half-cord of dry firewood.

All you have to do is answer the question, "Why I would like a half-cord of free wood this fall."

To enter this contest for the firewood, comment at the bottom of this page where it says Comment.

The response can be truth or fiction.

I will choose the most relevant response, and make the wood available in September.

Note1: The wood was cut two years ago, and is a blend of oak, maple and poplar.

Note2: Though I use firewood in the cabin, I have plenty for myself.

Note3: Firewood is getting expensive, and a half-cord might be helpful to someone this winter.

Note4: The winner will have to pick up the wood. The cabin is in New Sharon, which is between Augusta and Farmington.

Note5: This is not a ruse. I want to see if people respond to a good offer, and meet some readers who follow this blog on MaineToday.

To enter this contest for the firewood, comment at the bottom of this page where it says Comment. Comments of 25-100 words are expected.

A special award will be given to the best fiction response.

Yours truly,

Your Scribe
