Must be a O/S, please no previously posted stories or outtakes...

This is an anonymous contest so please don't cheat by telling people that it's your story...we will eventually find out and then you will be disqualified. Plus cheating isn't cool!

Collaborations are allowed, but please remember to include all members pen-names in the entry e-mail.

Any pairing is allowed.

Please also no Pedophilia (unless it's 107 year old vamps with 17 year old girls), bestiality (unless it's werewolves)...geesh what is it with this series we're reading! No rape, incest & the like.

Any Rating is allowed. Lemons are not required, but are always appreciated!

Please get your stories Beta'd...if you don't have someone available to beta for you I suggest sending the story to Project Team Beta: It does take time to get this done so don't wait until the very last minute to send it in. We're giving you plenty of time to get it in. If you are still having problems just get in touch with us and we'll see if we can help you out.

Finally the limit is two entries per individual or collaboration (any combination of : 1 collab and 1 individual, 2 individual, 2 collabs.)
