My First Contest

Ok, this is my first contest so far.
What I want is a great story. Very Beautiful, please.
Something that leaves you there, astonished, surprised. Preferably emotional, something that you know I'll really like. Now, when I speak of BEAUTIFUL, GREAT, AMAZING stories, I do not want:
Vampire Stories
Suicidal Stories (unless it follows with the story)
Erotical Stories (is that even a word? well, erotica is NOT any pretty, know. It's fugly O-o)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Know that highschool stories bore me out. Like, a lot.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Something that you're proud of, something you want to show to someone, a good work. Which means this contest pretty much stands for anything.

-Rules

No erotica
No cussing unless it's part of the dialouge, but if it goes on too much just for fun, you're out.
No bashing GOD! If you do, it's going to be more than just kicking you out >=)




Have fun, and go on writing :3
