I want to read stories with really good, well-developed characters- although not necessarily realistic ones, characters so full of life that they seem as if I know them personally. They can be evil or good, courageous or unlikeable, but I want them to be very ALIVE. You might want to enter a story with your favorite character that you've created.
Rules
1. No erotica, although sex/reference to sex is okay. Just don't make it the whole story.
2. No stupid typing/ horrible grammar. Break up paragraphs, check spelling, make it readable, because I will tend to stop reading it if I get lost or disgusted with grammar.
3. You can have gay/lesbian stories if you want to.
4. Put in your author comments which character in the story is your favorite. If you do not put this then you will not win- this I promise. Sorry, but it's aggravating when people just enter something which doesn't even apply to the rules and don't read the rules.
