Up to 20 contestants, almost anything will do! Unfortunately, one entry per person and the wordlimit is 1500. Not one word more, it will be DQed! Yes, 1501 IS too much!
Here's what I DO NOT want:
POETRY! Just regular stories please!
Erotica (that includes rape)
Sappy sappy love stories (I don't hate them, just want to read something different ^^)
Suicide! I mean, suicidal stories are OK, but not the typical "my life sucks, I cut myself"-emo crap. Yes, I said it. I just don't like that, and it's my contest!
So everything besides that is fine by me. That includes chapters or prologues or whatever, but they will be judged as a stand-alone story.
Buttt, if you feel like bonus points, what I'm really in the mood for is..
.. great (emotional) descriptions!
.. action sequences!
.. funny stories!
Well.. enter already!
PS. amount of HMs will be decided when I get to judging!
PPS. I'm usually slow with judging, so be warned!
PPPS. When someone gets DQed the contest will re-open so that another person can enter.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on January 21
- Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 250, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 6 people
- Final notes: OKAY! I'm finally done! Whoo!
There are 3 trophy winners and 6 HMs!
1: The Blood Twins: A Tale Of Entropy
This story is awesome, two extremely overpowered and cool characters slaughtering entire armies... Just the way I like it! Action sequences are cool!
2: Oh, Simplicity
A short short story, very simple (I'm guessing that's where the title came from). It's very cute and even though nothing special happens, it managed to touch me!
3: Rising
A pretty story about (inner?) transformations! Beautiful descriptions!
The HMs are in no specific order, they're all just good stories!
Everyone else, thank you for entering and I wish you all the best!
