THE TIME HAS COME! AGAIN! Miracle's 4th Writing Contest! :D
♠
THEME: Trainee Days. Yes ladies and gentlemen, we're going to take it back to before they were stars~ We realize that some of you may feel dodgy because the actual facts are fairly vague but that's ok! Don't be afraid to work this theme the best you can. That's why we call if fiction. :D
♠ When entering, please label the subject header with
"TRAINEE CONTEST ENTRY" so that no fictions are missed.
♠ As always, the pairing choice is entirely up to you. We welcome het and yaoi, canon and unconventional. :D With thirteen boys, I'm sure we'll get a variety of different pairings. Heck, the fic doesn't even have to be centered around a pairing if you don't want it to.
♠
Rating: Open -- you can go from G all the way to XXX. Just make sure you leave a warning if it's not work safe.
♠ All fictions must be a
one-shot. If you want to expand on it later, that's up to you, but it should be able to stand on its own.
♠
No old material. We'd like for you to write a fic specifically for this contest.
♠ The contest goes from now through
October 2nd.♠ The vote post will go up
October 3rd.♠
Voting will be done in two parts -- Members' Choice and Mods' Choice. Members' Choice will obviously be picked by the members in a voting post. Deliberation on Mods' Choice will take place between
hoyah and
gimmick_. However, more entries mean more winners. Our last contest had 13 entries and we had a total of four winners. Keep that in mind. ;D
♠
Criteria: The criteria we will be judging on in no particular order are originality, characterization, technical skills, and emotive power.
♠
Prize: Winners will receive a banner of recognition. Ooh, shiney. :D Hey, it's something nice to post in your userinfo.
GOOD LUCK!
