Alright.
I haven't done a contest in a month or something, so I want to do another one! 'Specially since I've finished up a couple of promised stories, and now I have free time!
This contest is going to be pretty simple & basic, so hopefully I'll get a lot of entries- but just so you know, only TWENTY [20] entries are allowed. One per person. That's it.
♥
There are two options. You can do one, or the other, or combine the two and put both in one entry. [But you can't enter two seperate stories.] Get it? Good.
[♥]Option 1: Where I Live
So simple. All I want is 100 to 1000 words telling me about where you live. Be real. Be honest. Be amazing. Give history onto why you love your hometown, or why you can't wait to get out of it. Make me love it or hate it, and feel like I'm there.
[♥]Option 2: My New Name
Still simple. In 100 to 1000 words, tell me what you would change your first name to if given the chance. [You don't have to give me your current first name if you don't want to.] And don't say "I love my name just the way it is because...". That's not what I asked for.
♥
Well those were the two incredibly easy options. Now for the rules!
RULES:
1. NO EROTICA/CUSSING. [Please?]
2. 100 to 1000 words. Minimum is set in stone, but you can go over the maximum by no more than about 50 words. You aren't writing a novel here, people.
3. Correct spelling/grammar. NoNe Of DiS oR I wIlL bReAk Da ComPuTeR pEePlZ! And use paragraphs.
4. No distracting backgrounds. I would perfect white with black words or black with white words.
5. No pre-writes.
6. One entry per person, and only TWENTY entries are allowed. YES you may save a spot, but if you don't come back and actually write something...I'm going to break the computer again.
7. Have fun! And message me with any questions.

I am so sick of people saying my name all the time. It is so annoying. Everytime something goes wrong, my brothers, dad or mum would say I did it. My friends would sometimes wear my name out also by just repeating it and notby Bubbles-- 200 words, 2 comments, on Feb 27 10:54 PM 2008• Viewed by judge.

if you do not enter, i will close the contest and cry myself to sleep for 15 and a half years. or i'll just extend it.
...whatever works for you.

Only fifteen and a half years?
Kidding.
Don't worry, I will definitely enter it. Or ask for an extension.
I don't know how I'd live with myself if I made you cry yourself to sleep!
