Okay, I've got a ton of points to give away, and I'm sick of staring at the numbers, and not doing anything with them. Other than a failed attempt some months back, this is my first contest.
I've been seeing a lot of restriction on somewhat sensitive subjects lately in contests. So, what I want is taboo subjects. Be it gay, lesbian, bisexual, BDSM, etc. Anything like that. What I don't want, however, is bestiality. That just squicks me out, though I don't think I've ever read a story about it. I just thought I'd put it out there, though.
Oh, the dreaded rules:
1. Please type coherently, I beg of you. I understand not everyone is a grammar Nazi like me or a typo Nazi like my girlfriend, but please put some effort into it.
2. Word count: minimum 500 words (you'll get major points if you give me something really engaging with this little word count), and maximum 10,000 (I like to read, so if you can manage a longer story and keep my attention, you'll also get brownie points)
3. I am allowing prewrites, because I know a lot of people probably have stories that fit this bill, and I'm happy to read it!
4. I don't get why everyone's like "No Erotica" in their contests because I personally like it, and encourage it, so have at it! It doesn't HAVE to be, no, but it's more an option than a rule.
...I think that will do it for now.
I will comment on every entry, as I'm interested to see something new and different.
Well, why are you still reading? Go write!

Let me be the first to let you know you have an avid supported here... I think not only is "profanity" a part of life, but more than half I am sure would agree it makes for one hell of a read and is crushing our freedom of speech.. you can look forward to something from me
-
-
Completely agreed. I look forward to it!! <3
-
-
Hmm, does it HAVE to be erotic or whatever?
-
-
Nope, it doesn't HAVE to be erotic. ^^ Maybe I should reword that?
-
-
Lol! Cool ^^
-
This contest sort of seems to me like a challenge to come up with something that's taboo enough to be disqualified... I'd enter with graphic description of pedophilia if not for the reason that I really, really don't want to write anything like that.
-
It seems that a whole lot of entries to this contest weren't even looked at by the judge.
-
-
That's because it hasn't been judged yet... I'm working on it.
-
-
Oops. Sorry. I thought it was already judged.
My mistake. -
-
It's no problem.
