Welcome to Gaia! ::

The most flexible creative writers contest ever!


This is a contest where writers will choose one or more of the pictures or quotes that i'll post, and write about it. It can be a poem, a short story, anything you want. there is no word limit, and you are allowed to choose more than one.

RULES:

-follow guild and gaian rules for writing content
-you must write about one or more of the pictures or quotes i give you
-when you are ready to post your peice, PM it to me and post it here. If it's a short story, you might want to just PM it to me, but otherwise do BOTH, to make sure i get it.
-post the title with your peice, and include the name of the picture or quote you chose at the end.
-the cost to enter is 50 gold.
-you may enter more than one per person, but you have to pay for each one. ex: if you enter two, you owe me 100 gold.
-entries will be due Nov. 21. I'm sorry thats not too much time, but I don't really want ten twenty-page peices to judge
-post here if you would like to enter, or if you have a question (i'm sure there'll be a few, because it's my first contest)
-entry fee's should be sent in trade requests, CLEARLY STATING IT'S FOR THE CONTEST.
-enjoy writing!

"How are you sure we're alive?" she/he asked, suddering.

"But I can't leave," he said. "I'll never leave this place without you"

I ran as fast as my tired, frozen legs would allow, every few feet stumbling, but getting right back up again

"You know so," she said, turning to the door. She walked out, and I made to follow her, only to receive the spring-attached door swinging back to hit me in the nose.

I counted the seconds until it happened, but nothing did when I reached zero.

a faint whisper broke the silence

chills ran down my spine


if you base your writing on a picture, i just need one scene on it for short stories, and poems just do them about it. For quotes i allow a little adjusting room-not TOO much, but you pretty much just have to include it in your peice somewhere. GOOD LUCK, AND HAVE FUN WRITING!

by the way, i've decided to have you put the quote(s), if you use one, in bold or a color that sets it out so I can easier see which you used

the quotes don't really need titles...i'm working on the pictures...thanks anyway!

I think i'm going to grade you guys partly on chatter on this page, too. like in "days sunny and blue", accept no one there really chatted. I'd like chatter here as well.

are you entering, lylas?

Alrighty, then! I guess I'm in, too. I'll try to get my piece in soon, but don't be surprised if it takes a while, as I am a procrastinator. sweatdrop

I do want you to chat. By the way, both of you are in!

I'm up for it that will be fun do we have to pay to do more than one

Um, how much am I allowed to change a quote? May I change "frozen" to "shuddering" (just this simple change will make me able to use this quote, but if I can't, I'll just have to use something else, and this would be best)?
