All entries are due 4 weeks from today and must be in a file format used by all computers (i.e. .txt, .rtf)

All rules subject to change. Check back here pereiodically.

Okay... so I guess this started two days ago (Tuesday). You can upload your file somewhere and link us, or you can attach it (you have to actually click on the reply button to do that :p it doesn't allow us to be THAT lazy... and to attach it it has to be a txt file, unless you can somehow make it a jpg... which is possible... but still... erm.. anyway...). So... get to writing! Looking forward to reading your work!

Savior- didn't know that.

KoD- yes, that's fine... just find out a way to upload it, or PM me, and I'll see what I can do.

rubixd- It can be about anything, as far as I know.

So, do I just read all of them that get posted here?

And do I just put what percent they get out of the total for each catergory?

Umm... mooie, don't we already have a thread about this? Up there, pinned to the top of the forum?

I guess this is just for us people who don't want to read through three pages of posts to find the rules. I'm in. (Its a good thing I'm on spring break now. Better get crackin')

Edit: Can I submit a story in two parts and have each part judged independantly?

I would think so.. if you entered them both at different times. Otherwise, ask SWE.

Hmm...sounds interesting enough. In fact, if anyone even listens to me, I've started doing some writing for my fantasy novel/RPG storyline. It's something that I can work on during my free time. Right now I have one story that is about 10-20% done, but it might be even longer. Right now it's only 3 pages, but since I'm making it up as I go along it is subject to heavy change.
