Due to the miserable turnout of the first competition, I'm starting the new one immediatly.
If you post saying you'll enter, please, please post something, even if it isn't finished.
There will be more than ten days to finish this one, so maybe that'll help. I hope it does.

Contest is over July 14, 08.

Rules:

1) Obey me!
I'm running this, so what I say goes. Sorry, mods, unless they're breaking rules this thread is my jurisdiction. twisted

3) Edit it first.
I will not accept submissions that have not been checked for grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Read it, run it through MSWord, get a WF regular or somebody here to beta it. If I find an enormous amount of errors, I'll not accept it. domokun

4) Judges
If you are a judge, you have to submit something. This is to ensure that there are at least five submissions- yes, I have to do this too.

Note: You can submit one only for this prompt.

What is expected:

This can be anywhere from a couple hundred words to several thousand; make it as long as you want. All we ask is that it somehow relates to the prompt given.
The prompt is fantasy-based, but as long as it relates, make it whatever you want. If you're not sure if it would fly, PM me or another judge to see if we'll take it.

The Prompt:

Write from a villain's point of view. Must be an original villain.

Matter of fact... You may ALWAYS put me up as a judge unless I give notice that I can't. I just love you so much that I will do that biggrin

Aye, where do I post my stuff?

Posted: Tue Jul 01, 2008 8:05 pm

Assuming I have time between work and college I am going to try to do something for this. I want to do it if for no other reason than I was the only one who posted in the other competition and I would like to see what you others might be doing.
