Send me a copy when you're done. Then I'll steal the idea, make it superior, and win the prize that I won't even use.

But 2-10k word short story I could do to kill some time. Night is a good theme to work with.

the BL poison would kill me by the time I am done, stock on yuri manga for me incase I collapse to the poison.

just do yuri, it'll make everyone happier and the people that don't like your work will hate it either way.

but for some reason, my yuri works are just not very well rated as my BL works. I really want to write yuri too, besides, there's not alot of people to write yuri about.

There is
Jessica x Eve
Aphrodite x MisS
Colagirl x MisS
Flo x someone or someone x Flo,

no alot to write about

the only thing remotely worth writing is Jessica x Eve.

I just have a few questions regarding the theme word. "night".

For example, can i start my story at night and then just go on about it,

Or should atleast a significant portion of the stoy take place at night?
Either way is fine by me since i already have a few ideas brewing.

Damn it, now I don't want to do it about rape, since that topic is probably going to be overdone...
Oh well, dark curse in strange land + spooky night atmosphere it is

The word count is too broad. And too long for the upper end. That's like, 15-20 Microsoft word pages if formatted properly. Something like 4000 at the top makes more sense.

And what are you doing with the stories submitted? Will you post the best? The best of each type? Will you post all of them? Will you categorize the stories when you post? (ie romance, fantasy, mystery, etc)

It's the theme, so it should be reasonably important in your story, if not the main point.

I'll just include both Plott brothers for double the points in that category.

On a serious note, this contest looks pretty awesome, I'll probably cook something up.

Great idea! What will the stories be judged by?

The OP says you can email him a request to judge.


I'm asking what not who. As in how it will be determined who has the best story.

My most recent short piece centers around the night and fits the length restrictions. I assume the purpose of this contest is to inspire new work?
My strategy is to fork people.

This

also 1500 words please? 2000 words is a bit too long if I want to avoid writing H-Scenes.

I reserve myself the right to use any of the content directly from or directly related to the Bisu x Stork fanfic I wrote for the 25M movie thread earlier. Or the stuff I wrote for rotinegg girl blogs. Fair to do so?
