Pay it Forward!

Yep, I continuing on the tradition of paying it forward after winning Frozen Angel's contest!

So I'll be allowing anything and everything! However, there are some rules.


1. Nothing over 2000 words please. It's week one of my second semester of college, and I've got a lot on my plate. (If you have something less than 3000 you think is absolutely wonderful, message me and I'll consider it).

2. Respect the rules of the English language; use proper grammar/spelling. If I can't read it, I'll DQ you.

3. Respect the others in the contest.

4. Make sure any adult/abuse/bashing is properly marked. I can read everything, I'd just appreciate some warning.

5. Please put something about "sunshine" in your author's notes.

6. The first, second and third place winners are humbly asked to pass on the points they receive from the contest to start their own!

6. Have fun!


Break a rule, I will disqualify you without warning. Of course you can question any disqualification, but please do so over PMs.

Also know that I'll give sort of harsh critiques. This isn't because I hate what you wrote, or have some personal grudge against you, just that I honestly found places I thought you could have improved in.

All that aside, have fun!


PS- Just wanted to remind some of you to check out the rules before the end of the contest. Some are at risk of disqualification, and this is your only warning!



PS- Hey guys! Just wanted to apologize for the delay in judging. We've been having a lot of storms lately, which have been downing internet lines, so I've had to use my limited time on the net to do homework. But I have printed off all the entries and written out critiques for them, so it's just a question of getting time to judge!

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on February 20, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 100, Silver: 65, Bronze: 35
  • Final notes:
    Hey everyone!

    I had fun reading the entries that followed the rules (thank you!). It was a tough decision, but the three I awarded were very good. I hope you guys had fun writing your entries (whenever you wrote them) and can use the awards to at least host a contest in the future.

    Thanks again!
