I have always had a special interest in etiquette and it certain is one of those things that a woman needs who is trying to "Become Classy & Sophisticated!" I have an old copy of Emily Post's 'Etiquette' book on my desk to refer to when the occasion arises. Let me say that there are many times that I have looked back and wished that I had taken the time to refer to my book before certain events. Too often I find myself in a situation where I simply don't know what to do. Thankfully I have this wonderful book to refer to after the fact.

Click here to pre-order your copy of Emily Post’s Etiquette 18th Edition today!
To enter, write a short essay (between 200-300 words) about a time when you wished you had Emily Post’s etiquette advice. Was it your most embarrassing public moment? Maybe an office faux pas you wish you could take back? Or a time when you didn’t know you should have brought a gift or written a thank-you note? Maybe you needed Emily when you just wanted to know the right thing to say or do. Do tell!
Ten semi-finalists will be chosen by public vote, at which point The Emily Post Institute will select a Grand Prize winner and three finalists. Entries are judged on originality, creativity, humor, grammar, and sincerity. All judging criteria are weighed in equal parts.
