Welcome, everyone! Anyone who bothered to click the link to my contest, that is... Ah, well, let's start off with the all mighty rules!
Rules:
1. No Erotica or Adult stuff. It's the holidays. Give me a break. It's happy time, not sexy time...
2. Try your best with spelling and grammar. I can be easily annoyed by mistakes, as I am an editor overall, but if you try your hardest(and try using spell check on word and such), then I can let a few things slide.
3. Don't use excessive cussing in your story. A few here and there is okay, but it can get annoying if your censorship looked like: *$&^# &$&^# &$^$^@$$ #&*$ $(&%$*^% #(^@*%$ &^%&*$&*^$&*%&^%# (#^* &^%*$ ^* *^#$&*^%&^%*&^%*&!!!!!!!!!!!!$&*(^!@&*^$#@$!!!!!
4. NO POEMS.
5. FICTION ONLY.
6. FICTION ONLY.
7. I will not judge non-fiction or poems. This is your only warning. You will be eliminated from the contest if you post anything other than fiction on here.
8. NO CHAPTERS. I only want one short story. It doesn't have to be a short short story, but it can't be more than one thing for me to read. YOU CAN ONLY POST ONE STORY ON HERE, AND I WILL NOT JUDGE YOU WITH ANYTHING OTHER THAN WHAT YOU POST, SO NO CHAPTERS.
9. Have fun!

I'm bored and un-inspired. Inspire me! =)
