Hi everyone 
With another contest just ended it's time to start another!
This one is super easy What I want you to do is choose what you feel is your best prewrite story. Then take the opening paragraph and the ending paragraph as well as one other paragraph somewhere in the middle and enter it here.
The idea is I will then have the beginning, middle and end of your story and I will judge on the ones that intrigue me so much from these three paragraphs that I will want to run off and read your entire story!
Does that all make sense?! I hope so!
So, the rules:
1 - Choose your best/favourite prewrite
2 - Take the first opening paragraph - one paragraph somewhere in the middle - and the ending paragraph
3 - That will make the story you enter 3 paragraphs long and will give me a 'teaser' from your short story
4 - I will judge on which ones intrigue me enough to make me want to read your whole story
5 - Your entry should be 3 paragraphs long - no shorter and no longer
6 - Any and all genre's accepted
Any questions just ask Have fun! I look forward to reading your entries.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on October 17, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 200, Silver: 100, Bronze: 75, Honorable mention: 10 people
- Final notes: Firstly sorry it has taken me so long to judge this contest! I have been working 70 hour weeks for the past 3 weeks and had no time to do anything but sleep when work is finished! I got there in the end though! Apologies to the few entries I didn't comment on - I did read them all though. I felt everyone in my finalists list at least deserved an honourable mention so I gave everyone one All the finalists captured my attention enough from their teasers to make me want to read the full story; and the gold, silver and bronze winners just intrigued me that bit more. Some really good entries and thank you to all for taking the time to enter

I was supposed to be dead. Should’ve been dead, actually. You’d think that a normal person would die from having ten bullets in their chest. I was probably the exception.

In order to tell this story with the respect that it deserves, I must state that there were good times before the part where the real story begins. Before April 3, 2007, it was paradise.
