Options Contest (:

Hello there!

Welcome to my very first contest. So… everyone loves a good old options contest right? I hope so, because that’s what you are getting. (:

Okay, now before you get too excited let’s have some rules shall we?

1. Try to have proper grammar and spelling. Please.
2. No bashing.
3. Between 300 and 5000 words.

Now that we’ve got that over and done with, here are the options…

Write something inspired by a song.
If you choose this option please include the title of the song and the artist in the author’s notes.

Write something sad.
I don’t mind what it’s about, just as long as you make me cry.

Write something about family.
I love stories that look into the relationships between family members.

Right, that’s it.

Go write!
