Faerytales

Enter some sort of fantasy story about the picture above.
I don't really care what it is about.
Any length. Make it as long or as short as you want.
Only one rule, no erotic, it won't win.
When I get ten entries I will start putting people up on the Preliminary Finalists list.

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on December 5, 2006
  • Rewards: Gold: 350
  • Final notes:
    This contest was a pleasure to host. I enjoyed all the entries for the most part, but I felt that these three stand above the rest. Good luck to everyone in future contests, and I hope you enjoyed writing your stories as much as I enjoyed reading them.

    Cool contest picture, I just have one question: What length of story are you looking for? I'm more into short and sweet if that's okay.
    M.E.

    I loved the picture and it gave me loads of inspiration... I just have one question, what length of the story do you prefer?
    If I write it short it will be obvious that it was "briefed-up" and if you mention the word 'long' I can go over a ten thousand words... So... how do you want it to be?

    P.S. Great contest by the way. I hope you get no boring entries.

    Too Bad!

    I have a prewrite that actually fits. I don't think I will get around to writing a fresh story before you contest ends. Sorry.

    Thank you so very much for the gold and points. I was not expecting to win gold. I felt that someone would come up with a story you liked better over the time of this contest. So, I am very surprised and pleased. I hope you really enjoyed your contest. I enjoyed writing this story for it.
