Pretty much all you have to do in this contest is enter what you consider to be your best story. However there are a few guidelines.
-Guidelines-
~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. Nothing adult and no erotica. Not only do I not like those kind of stories there is also the fact that SW won't let me view them.
7. Yes, seven goes here. Put the words 'Irish Ducttape' in a comment on your story. (No I don't mean in the author notes, I mean in a comment)
2. No suicide or really 'emo' stuff.
3. Nothing over 5000 words.
I will not be commenting on any of the stories as in the past many have disagreed violently with what I said about their stories. That or they completely disregarded my advice. So I no longer want to waste my time.
If your story does not comply with the rules I will not hesitate to DQ it. At that point you may try to figure out what's wrong with it and if you do and you fix it you may re-enter.
However I may also remove the story because I really really really really hate it. In that case you won't know but you will if you re-enter it and it gets kicked out again. But that is unlikely to happen unless your best story happens to be your worst too.
