Felt Like A Little Love

Okay, so I'm going on a holiday for the next few days and I thought I'd love to come back to reading some finger-tingling romances.

It can be any kind. I don't care. All I want is to feel the emotion- the tension- the joy...anything.

Rules:

1. Prewrites are ALLOWED but most be written AFTER 1st April 2009.

2. No word limit. But I prefer long ones for this.

3. Can be any genre...fantasy, fiction, non-fiction, Sci-fi...whatever. But please let it make sense.

4. I don't mind swear words. Just don't overdo it.

5. I'm thirteen. That should tell you enough.

6. Make the background readable.

7. I won't DQ you for bad grammer and spelling, but I hope
you'll get it right before the contest is over. It's rather irritating, to be honest.

8. The usual shift key rule.

9. Make it as descriptive as you can.

10. Gay and les aren't my thing so it isn't allowed.

11. Realistic as you can, please.

12. I prefer originals so no fanfiction. Sorry.

13. Don't strain yourself. Remember, we don't want the world crashing down on us.

Brownie points:

1. I'm a sucker for a cliche plotline that doesn't sound cliche at all. Makes sense? It's easy, take a cliche plot (maybe an arranged marriage or jock falls for nerdy girl theme) and make it sound not cliche.

2. I ADORE guys who have issues and imperfections.

3. I love the whole "don't need anyone" kind of girl.

4. Love stories NEED a little comedic relief. We always need a chance to catch our breaths and laugh, you know.

5. I LOVE a little action.

Points will probably go up.

If you need help getting started, msg me for a picture prompt. Good luck and have fun.

    Alright, I don't kow where to start but how about "Most of the enteries were so amazing I SERIOUSLY had a hard time judging".
