New Hiatus Contest! EVERYONE IS INVITED.
Our last two contests were very popular. The Nick and Jess as Prom chaperones and the The Cabin one last month. This will be it until probably Christmas so if you've been thinking about trying one, now is the time.
This is a great opportunity for newbies to try their hand at writing and for vets to keep their skills in working order. I've already gotten confirmation that NewGirl78 and Safui will be participating in this one (yep, I mentioned their names to pin them down). I'll be hounding the hell out of other vets like Kyra Cullinan and You-Drive-Me-Nuts-Miller to get them in on the action as well. Fingers crossed, here's hoping.
The rules are as follows. 1) You are to post next Sunday September 15th at 9:00 a.m. PST USA. PLEASE DO NOT POST EARLY. If you cannot post at that time, post later, after 9:00 a.m. Posting early gives an unfair advantage to the writer. The idea is that our little community suddenly has 10-15 brand new stories pop up at one time. 2) The title must have one of the five words in it. 3) You must use all five words in your story
Readers of fanfic, review like you've never reviewed before. There are no winners in this contest but everyone will get a lot of publicity when they post and **every writer is expected to review others**.
Alright, the great reveal. With great help by the Writers Loft members, your story must have the following five words in it. What you do after this, is up to you. Good luck and The Writer's Loft will get the word out as much as possible this week so that your story gets lots of attention.
Your five words are these...
WAX
SNAPPY
YARN
WINDCHIME
SIX/6
Use your imagination to explore any direction these words take you. Part of the charm of this contest is how creative people use these words and make them their own.
Thanks again everyone and we'll be watching and reading every story,
Mayalala & Not-A-Mer-Gentleman
