I assume you all are interested in having a short story contest? Well, we're going to have one. It's going to be simple. Participants submit their story to me privately before the deadline, via PM or email (
[email protected]). Then, I'll post them on the website in the Short Story Contest category under the username 'anonymous'. Then, polling will be open for 2 weeks. At the end of the two weeks, the story with the best ratings wins and the author of
the winning story receives a $20 online gift certificate to Barnes & Noble (bn.com).
To be keep the judging fair, the respective authors of the stories won't be revealed until after the contest is over. You must have at least 50 posts to submit a story.
Other rules:
- -must be between 400 and 3000 words
-must be fiction
-no poetry, no essays allowed
-must be original, not published elsewhere
-only one submission per person
-correct spelling and grammar required
You can submit stories anytime in February. The deadline is March 1st, meaning that you must submit your story before March 1st to participate. Voting will be held for exactly 14 days after the stories are posted on March 1st.
Good luck, and have fun!
