Ah, but don't just give me stories about your typical wood elf as seen in the more recent movie depictions. I want original ideas. Elves (human sized) and Elfs (tiny guys) have been the subject of many fairy tales: mischievous elves playing tricks, helpful elfs making shoes, baking cookies, and cleaning houses, Santa's elfs making toys for good little girls and boys, wood elves protecting their woods, or even some are fertility gods. You don't have to follow conventions though, there's many different flavors, give me something new and fresh!
Do a little research and come up with something to amaze me! It can be serious, or hilarious, dark, or romantic. Whatever you do, make it magical!
No fan fiction, (sorry Orly fans)
Complete stories (beginning middle and end, protagonist and antagonist, please)
Make gramma good. If I spend all my time critiquing I have less time to enjoy your story.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on May 2
- Rewards: Gold: 200, Silver: 100, Bronze: 50, Honorable mention: 5 people
- Final notes: Thank you all for entering.
The winners gave me exactly what I asked for, a magical elvish story. You each had an entertaining and unique story to tell, making this contest a success in my book.
I was a little disappointed in the number of entries that didn't even have an elf in them but it didn't make them any less enjoyable. Thanks again and be on the lookout for my next alphabet contest, coming soon.

Hm...I may be able to cook something up for this one. I have a few things going at the moment, but I will try to find the time to start a story for this. Is there a word limit?
-
-
Great! Looking forward to it. No word limit, just be aware if it's too long (more than say 10K) I might not read the whole thing unless it really catches my interest.
-
-
OK.
Some of my stories exceed 10,000, LOL. I'll try not to do that for this one though
-
-
-
OK how are we suppose to research and write in 13 days lol This sounds like fun.. I hope to enter..
-
-
ah come on in only takes an hour or two to do some net searching to get enough info. besides it will probably last longer than 13 days. So plenty of time.
Try, pretty please.
