Cold cruel world!!!

I know that all of you love your stories. Their like your babies. You watched them grow from one sentence to fifty pages (or less lol) anyways you love them so much you want to protect them from the evil people out there

well guess what? You are going to stop protecting them right now. If you are planning to get it published, you're going to have to send it out here in the hard, cruel world. I'm going to help you.

I am going to read it and critize it. Now hold on before you come after me with a shot gun. Let me explain. Editors are cold. They are heartless. They don't care if they hurt your feelings. They are just evil like that. I'm trying to help you by not getting upset and burst into tears when some fat editor says you suck.

Ok I'm sure the editor isn't going to say you suck but they might as well say it if they don't like it.

So if you are still too sensitive about your story, do me a favor and not enter. That way I don't have to yell at you when you start insulting me. It's a waste of time. Becuase I'm sure I'll sound like a witch (subsitute that w with a b ) and I won't be surprise to get an 'f you.'

but at least know I'm giving you my honest opinion.

Guidelines:
there is only one and just one: 1000 words or less.
•it can be any genre, any style, any whatever.
•write "angelic dragon, you suck" in your authors note. If I don't see it, then that means you didn't read any of this meaning you were to lazy to read and randomly entered in meaning I'm going to delete you with a smile on my face.

      Hmmm what's your story? I might make an expection. I like doing those once in a while.

      • In the guidelines it says to write 'angelic dragon you suck.' Look for yourself. Ooops *blushes* I didn't realise it was your contest!!! I guess you need to go beat yourself up now!

        My story is Bladers-Chapter one. It is the only one i'm really focused on. The other stories kind of turned into deadbeat ideas now.

          Sure go ahead and enter it in if you are seriously working on this story of yours.

          I understand the deadbeat ideas. Lol I have a lot of dead bodies of ideas laying around here. I'm still burying them. But go ahead and enter it in.

            Yeah, thanks. I'm not really into actually winning the contest much, I mean it would be nice but all I want right now is some critics on how to make it even better. Punctuation and grammar have always been a hard spot for me But still thank you so much for allowing me to enter the contest! Oh and because I read the rules, you would know because I talked about the word limit, would I really have to put the thingy in my authors notes?

              No problem. That is the main reason for this contest is to help people with my comments and critizism so they can improve and make their stories even better.

  • Why don't you like Angelic Dragon?

      Yeah sure it can be as random as it can be. On the I suck comment, I'm just having fun. My friends and I joke around a lot and they always say I suck. Lol I just felt like putting that.

  • if my story is 200 over, is that ok?

  • mine's a little over the word limit--is that ok?
