Opinion Galore is where you can submit and writings where you take a stand on an issue, event and others, such as a school report on a book what ever you like it or not and so forth. Be careful not to offend anyone or I will ask you to change the writing or remove yourself from the contest. I only need one PM to remove it, don't let me do that. The Miniume words is 300 and the max is 3000.
When posting, please do not:
Post offensive things, If you don't know if it is or isn't it probily shouldn't be submitted.
This includes:
Representing characters as stereo types (like having a character that is African American and is non intelligent and is the butt of the joke, such as Jim in Huckleberry Finn.) If you have a question about this, please make sure to PM either o0-WGU-0o or myself (roners) I will respond quicker if you pm myself.
Swearing is a big no-no, but if you use it in context to further your writing, like describing a feeling, it is ok, but please, keep it to a minimal. Again, pm if you have a question
Using a real-life person, unless you have permission from them (proof is always good.)
Racism is absolute NO (but you should know that) Even having a situation in a book where someone is bullied because of their race is a no-no. Questions are always answered if you have one.
And of course, please follow the gaia Guidelines and Rules.
This is how the contests shall work:
When you have written your poem etc, you will have two weeks 'door' to post your work. After two weeks, your submission will be opened to voting. Following that day, voting will end and I will make a new thread in this subform, listing the date. On the week before's forum I will post the winners and I will also make a copy of them and post it on the main form under Rules, Regulations and Events. Also, the amount of prize money depends on the amount of donation money so donate up and thanks to you all that have done so already.
This is destined to change.... considered yourself WARNED
