Just Sad Stuff

I have been into sad stories lately. I want to read some. I really don't know why.

Here is what you can do:

1) Give me some sad poetry.
-I prefer ones that come from the heart

2) Give me some really sad love stories.
-IT DOESN'T END WELL!!!

3) Give me a sad story.
-nothing that has to do with death
-just sad

Just write good stuff. If you want to write about death, you can message me and I'll see if I approve. You can only use death if you message me for permission. I will disqualify anyone who doesn't.

Here are some rules:

1) APPROPRIATE topics
2) 1000 word limit (I do have homework)
3) prewritten allowed
4) state what kind of sad item you're using in the author notes
5) follow the dang rules

I will be tough. You must follow the rules. Also, don't get depressing and sad confused. Depressing is more extreme. Sad is just not happy.

Don't discouraged by points. As the contest continues, I will raise the points.

If you have any questions you can just message me.

    My story's wordcount is kinda off, as its only 900 words, but the SW wordcounter is whacked. Is that okay?

    It's "Scratched", btw.

    And I'm using the third option.

    I assume your 1000 word limit does not apply to poetry?

  • Nevermind, I just realize the word limit.

  • I think the word limit she put on there is the maximum wordage. Considereing "I do have homework" comment.

    But, I imagine we need some reassurance from the almighty Contest Holder!

    Umm.... I have a suicide story that matches most of the prompts except for the death part. Can I enter?

  • I have a short story that involves death...is that okay? It's about a wolf.

  • Hi!

    Thanks so very much for the gold trophy and all the points. I greatly appreciate them. I'm pleased you like this story.

    I hope you had a super contest. Thanks for hosting.
