I know that there's a lot of writers here on AG and I wanted to make an original, but not too time consuming contest to help these people shine. I will choose a theme and anyone can enter. The format will be 2 Paragraphs- as long as you want They have to relate to the theme. They can be like the middle of a story, or the beginning. Think of it as a short story, except shorter. Maybe you could think of it as an excerpt from another story. I will find a moderator to give out a merit, but I will judge. The most interesting, expressive, or original (or maybe even funny) entry will win!
1st place (and a merit) goes to... Cenere for his entry "tomorrow".
I really like the way tomorrow has it's own meaning. Tomorrow is eternal procrastination, which is great. I know this was only 5 minutes, but those were 5 good minutes. Your other entry had some comprehension issues.
2nd place goes to: adrecka33 for her entry This was great too. Though there were spelling mistakes, I got an image of what was going on. That's what I know adrecka33 is good at. Great imagery.
3rd place goes to thoadthetoad for his entry
Sorry for the cut judging. I will finish later... Cenere, I will tell you when to get your merit.
Hmm I am just looking at this for the first time and I think I might actually have a shot at it.My english teacher is making myself and 4 others in my class participate in a writing contest for a $500 prize on a state level(I think but don't take my word on what level it is at)Anyways I think this might be fun to participate in.I just need to wait until the next theme.
Oh, I am sorry mentorso, I must have missed that message.
I'll get right back to you on this, though. First though, I would like to see the competition become established and regular before I start giving out merits.
