Species: Check All That Apply

I don't know what brought you here. I don't know if you're a long-time Trek fan or if you've never seen an episode but I do know this: at some point, after watching a lot of Star Trek, you start having conversations with people about what species you would be. It's an inevitability.

I've found, through lots of soul-searching and other, even less quantitative means, that I'm half-Vulcan and half-Klingon. That's not to say that my parents are Vulcan and Klingon. They're actually Bajoran and Betazoid. Whatever, I know what I am. And, because I'm an artist, I spent some time working up what I would look like if I existed in the Star Trek universe:

Now, here's the exciting part: You can get one of these too!

It's a contest! It starts today! The prize is a Star Trek illustrated portrait of yourself!

Entering the contest is easy:
Just leave a comment below with your preferred Star Trek species.
But wait, that's not all! You can better odds with a little more work:
You get to add your name to the contest once for every time you share the blog. If you share it on Facebook, your name goes in again. If you share it on Pinterest, your name goes in again. If you tell a friend about it in Gchat or over the phone or in the bathroom stall next to you, your name goes in again.
For every time you spread the word about this contest, you get another entry. Just come back here and tell me that you did it. I'll add it all up.

So, if you: leave a comment, tell your BFF, post it on Facebook, and pin it to your geek board, you get 4 entries.

Now, go forth! Be proud of your Star Trek species! Spread the word!

 The contest will be over in two weeks--on March 27th. If you have any questions, just ask!
