E v e n t s~
Okay, nobody joined the contest!
Amy and I are going to cancel the contest until further notice.
Probably even come up with a different contest.
That info will be coming soon!
We are having an epic short story contest to celebrate the crossing of our 200th page!!
Ami and I would like to thank all the regulars here for staying loyal and making our celebration possible. (:
Now on with the details!
There will be ten slots opened starting today (Sunday, March 7th) until Friday, March 12th. On that day, weather the slots are all full or not, we will not be accepting anymore writers. We want to give an equal amount of days for the writers to finish their stories.
After the short six days of entering the writing will begin! Writers will have until Friday, March 26th (two weeks) to come up with a short story. If you are not finished with your story by then you are disqualified. After the two weeks Ami and I will take an additional three day judging period.
How big the prize is will depend on how many enter the contest. Weather the slots fill up or not, Ami and I will be giving an additional 10k to the main prize.
Requirements for entering the contest:
- There will be a 2k entry fee in which will be used in the main prize.
- You must make an effort to post in the thread at least ever other day within the time of the event. If for some reason you cannot post, please let us know. (And yes, it better be a good reason!)
- There must be romance in your short story!

- Your short story must be ast least a page long. But no longer than 3 pages please. (Its is a
short story afterall.)
- As amazing as it is.. No yaoi or yuri.
- No bribing (or begging -.-) the goddesses for the win!
- Please, don't be a sore loser if you don't win. You did your best (we hope) and had fun right? Can't win 'em all. ;3
- NO PLAGIARISM! (This will result in automatic disqualification!)
- Failure to meet the rules and requirements will first get a warning and the second time disqualification. (And no entry fee refunds will be made!)

heart somewhere in your entry PM so I know you read the rules.)
Naughty fun in the story is allowed. ;D
