Hey all. I was wondering how many people would be interested in taking part in a short story contest, as a judge, participant or both. I'll see how many people are interested before we set up rules, dates and themes, but the outline would basically be: - One theme for all. It wouldn't be too specific to allow all the short stories to be different. - A word limit. Something like 3000, but up for debate. - A set date they all have to be in obviously, up for discussion. Post here if you want to take part and if you have any ideas. |

I would be willing to be a judge, and if it comes down to it, put up my story. |

Cool thanks for the replies guys. I'll leave the topic open for people to join for a week or so as the forum's been a little quiet lately. Obviously people can join right up until the stories have to be submitted though. |

I think that the stories should be anime related, since this is that kind of board. but thats just me. I would say no less than 1000 words, and no more than 4000 or 5. That way it isn't to huge but long enough to get your attention. I would also say it should be in within a week or so. But all this is just off the top of my head, i could come up with more if i thought it over. |

It wasn't posted at a very strategic time Mitas. Most people have exams right now so they might not have the time to do the stories. Me being one of them. I would have said I'd join but I haven't got the time right now. |

I dont know about other countries, but in the US, College exams are done right now because the summer semester starts next week (I have to go for Chemistry), and the High School exams are in June. |

Yeah ok this may be old, but would anyone be up for a short story contest like this one? I mean it's a short story not a series so hopefully this can get some interest |
