| Author | LWM official short story contest (support topic) |
|---|
Dear ladies and gentlemen of our finest LWM community,
I am sorry for the delay, directed by ethic and moral obstructions I had to face during the last week. But today I finally announce the opening of the grand contest!
Your goal is to write a FANTASY-BASED (!) short story and publish it in relevant topic, which would contain the competitors' works ONLY (similar to poetic contest).
There is no hard length limit set this time, but try not to exceed 1-2 pages. Stories being way too long (more than 2 pages) and, at the same time, way too short (less than 40 lines) might get some grades off, depending on jury's decision.
DO NOT PLAGIARIZE! Competitor, caught in plagiarizing attempt, will be expelled not only from this contest, but from all the similar future activities of that type. His nickname will be blacklisted forever.
The contest starts today, on 4th of July, and will last until 4th of September (2 months). Evaluation period will last for 10 days and the final results will be published after 14th of September accordingly.
Important: The story DOESN'T HAVE TO BE ABOUT LWM WORLD, but IT HAS TO BE IN FANTASY STYLE. Example: you can present a tale of noble knight or a dragon, even as a spin-off from Westeros universe.
Good luck! |
Judges:
Arctic
Worf

The judges can present their works as well, but these won't be graded. |
Prizes:
So far the sums which were discussed with Arctic, were 100k for the winner, 50k for 2nd place and 25k for third. I hope it stays this way :) |

Short Story 1: Reign of Darkness [excerpt from Novella {unfinished}] |
| Im not judging thats for sure. I wanna take part and earn those 100k. Huntrass, I think your idea of posting an excerpt was not good. everything seems rushed up and incomplete... My personal opinion. If you give us a background of the characters it will be easier to understand. |
for _Huntress_:
DO NOT PLAGIARIZE! |
| Yeah, wasn't plagiarized - I wrote it... |
| I understood you wrote it but the excerpt wont work. Not as a judge but as a well wisher and as a fellow competitor I want you to write something new and put the extra hardwork. |
| One quick question...isn't that too long for a "short story"? |
| Its 1500 words. Around the limit i'd say |
| Oh alright |
| K5, if you want to participate instead it's fine, I will exclude you from judge list then. I hope maybe dArtagnan will help me instead. |
| Thanks :D |
for _Huntress_:
So, you are writting a Novella ? Nice |
