Enter The Exclusive Damien Molony Forum Creative Competition!
YOU can be the lucky fan to win a one of a kind prize:
A photo of Damien Molony as Edmund in King Lear in ‘Shakespeare in Styria’, with a uniquely signed autograph!
The photo is A4 size and the autograph is in gold pen (the scans do not do it justice!) and reads:
" Thanks for watching Being Human,
Lots of love,
(Damien's signature)"
We are giving away not 1 but 2 original photos, both with the above autograph from the man himself - pictured here signing them on 20 May 2012 at the National Theatre stage door!
For your chance to win one of these epic photos, we want you to unleash your imagination in our creative competition!
All you have to do is make something related to Damien Molony and any of his work / projects, in 1 of 2 categories:
1. Visual - painting, drawing, collage, t-shirt/badges/posters designs, creative photography, sculpture, models, crafts - any visual art using any medium
2. Written - fan fiction, poetry, haiku, creative writing, short stories - this can include true stories told creatively (for example about seeing Travelling Light or meeting the man himself!)

Hi Su and Pudas! why not give it a go, you might surprise yourselves! we are not looking for masterpieces (not that you couldn't create one) or anything of great length if it is writing, perhaps a short poem, a funny poem or story, or if it is visual, a photo collage or anything! I hope you give it some thought before giving up on the idea!
Just a reminder to members: because the competition entries and voting are anonymous, please don't mention or hint at what you are working on, or in which category, and if you have specific questions please just send a PM to me in the admin account (Damien Molony Forum),
Thanks!
I hope you all have a go, these signed pics are so worth it.. and good luck to all!
Ahhh it seems I must set those creative juices flowing again :D
A question about the poll though. Only vote I assume? And maybe add that you can't vote for yourself? It might be the deciding vote if you do :o Just a suggestion :)
You is correct about voting San, I didn't want to overload everyone at this stage...felt like enough rules already! but maybe i should add it right from the start, and reiterate when voting opens? thank you for helping clarify!
good to see you are all getting inspired...I know you will want to reduce your competition (lol) but it would be great if as many people as possible get to hear about the comp, please share the info with any Damien fans out there! thanks!

It would be awful if someone's email went astray and thought their entry had been received. So please confirm to me in a private message when you have sent your email !
I had a dream last night about what I would do if I entered the competition (which of course I cannot, as running it and already have my pic) (so this means i can talk my fantasy entry here)..
In the dream I woke up and walked down to a beach... just as the tide was going out... I saw something on the sand, as I approached I could see it was lots of shells and stones arranged into what looked like writing...as I got closer I could see they were my favourite Hal quotes, with the shells and stones arranged close together and upright like dominoes!! then I remembered I had done this yesterday and just in time before the tide came in (well it was a dream..although i do have a goldfish memory) I began thinking, why didn't they wash away? and just as i was waking up i thought, would this be visual or written art for the competition?!?!?
