I am new to the whole competition lark and haven't as yet won a bean. I was just wondering how many competitions people enter as opposed to how many they win.
Sorry if this is in the wrong bit.
I have entered about 100 so far and not a sausage.

Just keep going ,I was comping for ages, before I had my first win.
Some folks are very lucky .......but others like me, are plodders and just keep comping away, and every now and again something fab turns up in the post:DI appreciate Each and Every win. I thank every comp poster from the bottom of my heart :A0 -

I enter approx 1200-1500 a month. The amount of wins varies a lot but I've had some very good ones since I started.
Keep going. Sometimes the first win comes quickly, sometimes it takes a couple of months but it'll be worth it in the end.
Good luck and welcome to the comps forum.
