Welcome one and all to part 2! Heres what I want you all to do...

1. Go back to part one of your stories.
2. Click 'edit'.
3. Write 'Part 2' at the bottom of your piece.
4. Submit the story again, with part two added on!

Simple, eh?

For part two, I want you to write the main action of the story. I will be looking for the following points as I judge....

1. Can I really feel as though I know the characters? Are they real, and easy to relate to?
2. Is the setting being described well throughout?
3. Is the main action in the plot good? Is it too confusing? Or too simple?

Please leave the story open for the the next part. Dont resolve everything the character faces..... that will be done in part three, where we will make satisfying endings for the stories. All I want here, is the middle part of the story, a good bit of plot to get my teeth into!

Simple, eh?

No word limit as such, just dont make me sit here reading for hours and hours for one entry, or my brain may explode and that would make me sad!

Well, off you go! And I look forward to seeing what
fiendish plot lines you all have in store!

Contest is Over

  • Final notes:
    Thank you to my remaining authors, who are still here at the end of Round 2! I really hope to see you all in Round 3, because I need to know how all these great stories will turn out! And there is also the 'twist' to the contest to look out for!

    Anyways, I decided on my winner here as the story was a lovely continuation of the first part. It gave us a nice event, and left it open perfectly for part 3. Great job! I also ended up awarding a second place for another story here, which is wonderfully written, and has the potential to be stretched even further to become a wonderful tale!

    lol

    Oh man. I liked the first part of my story so much that I started turning it into a novel. I have outlines and everything.

    ...So if I'm to submit the "middle" part of PftH in 13 days, AND if I'm gonna follow my outline, I'm gonna have to write like a maniac and dearly hope that your brain doesn't explode when I submit it.

    Lol. Hell yeah! It's a challenge!

        question

        It would be so much easier just to create a new story and copy/paste the entire thing I wrote that way. Do you mind if I do this instead of editing (which would mess up the story in another contest?)

    I hope you don't mind, but I've put some of the description I took out to get my Part 1 under the word limit back in... should I make this clear in my notes for Part 2, or what?

    Darn!

    Is it at all possible for you to extend this? Or is it too late?
