Get Ready For Another Pay It Forward: Let's See What Happens Next!

Okay,

I was the last winner of "Pay It Forward" by Hearts and Stripes. Soooo. It's my turn to host one of these! YAY!


You all should know by now what to do, but I will make a quick run through. Firstly, you have to reserve one of the Twenty spots, reserve by putting like one sentence as the title and ‘story’, example; ‘I’m in’ or something along those lines. When the prompts are put up, which will be when all the places are filled (be patient) you must choose a prompt and write a story or poem for the prompt, then I will judge.

The way this will work is there will be two days for everyone to enter. Then on the third day I will post the prompts and you will write your story! lol.

Once all the spots have been filled the prompts will be posted. After the prompts are posted you will have two days to write your story.

WORD COUNT
_______________

For Stories: The Minimum- 500 The Maximum- 5,000

For Poems: The Minimum- 30 The Maximum- 200

If you write a Poem, List it as JUST a Poem. Everyone writes poetry in different ways, sometimes it may sound like a POETIC SHORT STORY. So please, either list it as a Poem or say so in your Author's notes.

That goes for people writing stories as well. This is not required but I would appreciate it.

RULES
_______

1. Make your story readable, should have proper spelling and pretty good grammar. Doesn't have to be perfect but needs to be readable.

2. This contest is open for everyone, so if your story has Erotica in it...keep it to a minimum.

3. Swear Language could be kept readable. No swear word every ten words or anything like that. Your character can be mad without saying the F word every time.

4. Your story can be the first chapter of a new story you are writing, but it should make sense. Don't leave me hanging in your story. If you do, you'll lose my interest.

WHAT YOU WILL BE JUDGED ON

1. Creativity- You will be judged on how crazy a story you can write.

2. Imagination- There is a difference between creativity and Imagination. If you create your own world, I will love it.
REMEMBER
____________

If you win this contest you must host another PAY IT FORWARD contest. If you need help hosting one you can always ask one of the past hosts of the PAY IT FORWARD contest. You must host a Pay It Forward Contest within at least three days of your winning.


You will be sent a comment saying when the Prompts are up.

      I guess it's just personal preference of the contest-setter. Win one yourself, knock the wordcount down.

        Word Count

        Word Count
        Actually, it's higher than the last one. The last contest the Max. was 2,000...mine is a Maximum of 5,000. So I wouldn't be complaining about me knocking the word count down, because if anything I made it so you could write more.

          I think he was complaining about you putting the word count UP, actually... or at least, if not complaining, saying he preferred the contests with lower word-counts...

    1. What do you mean by "Alchemists fighting a battle"? Aren't alchemists scientists who turn metals into gold?

      Alchemists

      Alchemy is so cool to write about. And difficult, you have to have a lot of detail to make your story visable and allowthe reader to see the Alchemists fighting the battle.

      Alchemists can have many different powers, each unique to the single person.

      Example: Colonel Mustang is the FLAME alchemist. Meaning he can create fire and nothing else. He has a series of moves which he can manipulate the fire.

      Edward Elric: The Full Metal Alchemist- Edward can create metallic objects, a knife on his already metallic arm. He rebuild Alphonse, because he's in a metal suit.

      There are many ways to take this, use your imagination and the story will follow. lol
