A Falling Star's Writing Prompt Contest

4.29.2015

So this is happening:
I am holding a writing contest.
I entered Hannah's writing prompt contest and enjoyed it, so I decided to hold my own. 

Rules:
1. Choose one picture prompt or one writing prompt. If you choose a writing prompt, the first sentence is given.

2. Write your story in any of these formats:
     -Poem
     -Short story
     -Backstory
     -Diary/journal entry(ies)

3.Post your entry on your blog with a link back in the comments OR email me your entry Between May 1st and May 31st. All entries after May 31st will not be counted. 

4. Put the image above on your sidebar/ trophy page.

Prizes:
TBA when I know how many people actually want to write and enter.
Here are the prompts:
 Picture Prompt 1
 Picture prompt 2
 Picture Prompt 3
Writing Prompt 1
 Writing Prompt 2
 
 Writing prompt 3

I will announce the winners June 4th.
~
 I'm hoping a few people will enter.
If you know of any writers, do share this contest with them.

      Yay I finished! I'll post it as soon as possible, otherwise known as when my mom will sit down and approve the post.

      Yay! I'll check your blog as soon as I know it's up!
      I use my mom to correct my writings for english as she's better than spellcheck;)

      Yay!
      Yeah, my blog is kinda like my writing for my homeschool, so she goes over all my posts and reads them to correct grammar/spelling before she posts them. I still don't allow her to read any of my writing, mwahaha. Though she'll actually have to read this to approve it. It's going to be weird for her to read my writing, haha,

    I would absolutely love to enter! Except that I am not really that good at writing, though I enjoy it ;) I will most certainly consider entering if I can come up with a decent story/storyline for the prompts! ;)

      Huh? I'm sorry Autumn, but IDK why it's saying that as I've never deleted your comment much less read it. Sorry again.

    2. autumn25.5.15

      xD That's completely fine! It actually means that I deleted the comment...which I did. The device which I was using to type it was acting really funny, so I deleted it. But what I actually meant to say was that I was really excited for the contest and that I really was excited about entering :) So sorry about that!

    I am super excited to see the winner! Will you please show a few runner-ups too? Because I'm interested in comparing people's different writing styles, especially ones that used the same prompts.
